Update: CodeIt.Right v1.9.10111 and New Setup for TestMatrix

Serge Baranovsky — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 19:19:51 GMT

We published two updates this morning:

CodeIt.Right v1.9.10111 - both Standard and Enterprise editions. This is a minor update, primarily bug fixes. Not a required update unless you are experiencing some rule issues or unhandled errors this update might fix.
New setup for TestMatrix - we have created a brand new setup for TestMatrix to replace the often confusing "silent" version. New setup experience is very much the same as all our other products. Version hasn't of the product hasn't changed.

Released: CodeIt.Right version 1.8.09300 - now compatible with VS2010 Beta 2!

Serge Baranovsky — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 08:57:12 GMT

Today we are releasing new version of CodeIt.Right - build 1.8.09300.

This version features complete ASP.NET support, it is compatible with VS2010 Beta 2 (in addition to VS2008, VS2005, VS2003), Add Rule dialog improvements - "Hide Rules in the Profile" and "Quick Search", 10+ new rules including new category "CodingStyle".

Those of you who are using CodeIt.Right with very large solutions may know of the memory limitation issue for the tools that live in the Visual Studio address space, aka "Out of Memory" exceptions. You will be excited to know we have addressed the issue in this version by introducing new "Memory Optimization" mode. The "Performance mode" is still on by default since it offers a little faster analysis but CodeIt.Right will offer to switch to the "Memory Optimization" option when you open a large solution or get the dreaded "Out of Memory" exception. You also are free to switch between the options manually.

Another change we made - we removed Sealed modifier for all built-in rules. This gives you even easier way to extend and customize existing rules by simply overriding just the methods you wanted changed. See Tutorial: Extending Existing Rules for a sample.

This update is free for all users who are current on their Software Assurance and Gold Support Subscription

New in CodeIt.Right v1.8:

Now compatible with VS2010 Beta 2, VS2008, VS2005 and VS2003
Finally complete ASP.NET support including refactorings in HTML markup.
Added Memory Optimization mode – allows to minimize the memory use at slightly lower reduces performance. This allows to solve the “Out of Memory” issue on large solutions.
Added Performance tab to the Options window – Best Performance/Memory Optimization.

All Exclude tabs now support multi-select
New option to Exclude a Project
Added new “Add” button in Exclude Rule, Exclude File and Exclude Project tabs – the dialogs support multi-select.

Released: CodeIt.Right version 1.6.09139 - now fully compatible with VS2010 Beta 1!

Serge Baranovsky — Tue, 19 May 2009 17:08:21 GMT

As you may know yesterday Microsoft released VS2010 Beta 1 to MSDN Subscribers. The Beta will also be publicly available for the rest of the world on Wednesday. This is long expected and very exciting new version of Visual Studio; and we here at SubMain are fully prepared to support the new shiny version!

While some companies make a big deal posting screenshots of the upcoming VS2010 versions and announcing availability of previews for their products within a month, we at SubMain have been working hard to give our customers a new fully VS2010 compatible version on the day of VS2010 Beta 1 release!

So ... today, within the 24 hours of the VS2010 Beta 1 availability, you can download new version of CodeIt.Right that runs in VS2010 (as well as VS2008, VS2005, VS2003) and fully understands the syntax changes in C# 4.0 and VB10! This is just of the many new features that come with this release - you can see the long list below.

With the VS2010's multi-monitor support and CodeIt.Right allows for even better performance as you keep violations up on one monitor while review source code and the changes on the other monitor.

Another great feature added in this version is the template based rules. We currently support T4 templates. The template based rules are simpler and more flexible alternative to writing custom rules using CodeIt.Right SDK.

Over the next couple of weeks we will be adding a tutorial on how to use and customize T4 templates in CodeIt.Right. Ping us if you want this sooner.

Give it a shot and let us know what you think!

This update is free for all users who are current on their Software Assurance and Gold Support Subscription

Known issues

We are releasing the product with one known issue this time for it is very minor.

Under VS2010 Beta 1 CodeIt.Right rule documentation links, like "More", "Tell me more..." don't work. This feature depends on the Visual Studio offline help module which was not shipped with VS2010 Beta 1. You still can use Rule Help in the Profile Editor. Rule documentation help works fine in VS2008, VS2005 and VS2003.

CodeIt.Right Rule Update 20080412

Serge Baranovsky — Sat, 12 Apr 2008 19:59:05 GMT

by Serge Baranovsky

This CodeIt.Right rule update includes fixes as well as 3 new security rules.

New rules:

Do not declare read only mutable reference types (Security)
Seal methods that satisfy private interfaces (Security)
Secure GetObjectData overrides (Security)

These rules are included with the default profile and you will only need to follow the wizard to merge them into your custom profiles.

Fixes:

Rule "Do not override operator equals on reference types" incorrectly triggered violation for the "Equals" method. Now this rules only reports violation for the operator "==" override.
Fixed "If the type is a generic type, CIR adds the apostrophe-count string to the class name for the deserialization constructor"
Fixed "If there is no explicit default parameterless constructor, adding the deserialization constructor causes errors in all derived classes that called the parameterless constructor"

As a reminder, this set of rules is distributed using the Rule AutoUpdate feature which triggers 15 minutes after you start Visual Studio. If you turned the feature off, you can manually start the update wizard from the CodeIt.Right/Help & Support/Update Rules menu.

We published new Beta build of CodeIt.Right - added new rule, a number of UI improvements and bug fixes. Give it a try.

Misha is very excited about the trip - this is his first time in Seattle and United States. We both will take few days off and go ski at Crystal Mount. We've worked hard getting CodeIt.Right Beta out and certainly going to enjoy the time off - just to rejuvenate before we jump on the next set of improvements :)

That doesn't mean we will go incommunicado - there will be no new CodeIt.Right builds for two weeks that's all. We are leaving two developers in the shop and Stuart as usually will be on the top of the support issues. I will make sure I follow up on support cases at least every other day.
