    I've been a big fan of FxCop for a long time - it's a really great tool. My only question is, does this version plug into Visual Studio Professional? That's the one thing I'd really like to see support for :-)

    Mark: The free version of FxCop itself remains as a external tool. However, an integrated version of it does ship with the higher end SKUs; Visual Studio Team Suite and Visual Studio Team Developer. Regards David

    David: Is there an update for the integrated version?

    My version of FxCop already says 1.36.   Is this the same thing or is it a newer version of the same version?

    I still fail to see why Microsoft reserve VS integration for the higher end SKU's. As the only person in our dev team who would love to see FXCop running over our code it makes it much harder to try to push for such a tool to be used. Visual Studio professional integration would make this an easy sell to every semi-detatched boss who wasn't so aware of the horrendous butchering going on by inexperienced dev's.

    Bill: It's likely that you still have the beta installed (check Add/Remove Programs and it should list mention 'beta' if you do have it installed). Make sure you uninstall it before installing the new version.
