devAdvantage now finds and fixes problems in C# exception handling
Anticipating Minds has just introduced yet another set of rules to its devAdvantage product - now nearing the end of its beta. It now contains a little over 15 rules regarding best practices and standards for error and exception handling. Like the other rules (naming conventions and threading) it can automatically correct them. So if you are tired of ensuring that specific methods test for null arguments before referencing and throwing a ArgumentNullException, this tool can automatically detect and correct.Check it out at
https://www.anticipatingminds.com/Content/Products/devAdvantage/devAdvantage.aspxWe are getting ready to tackle our next group of rules focused on performance. We would be very interested in hearing what types of rules and development guidelines people would like to see from us - either as part of the performance collection of rules or any other types of rules (design, security, technology specific areas, etc.).
