This CTP is available as a Virtual PC (VPC) image which can be downloaded at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=129231 .

IOW is it now much easier to create custom rules?</p> <p>2) Are custom rules testable under unit testing frameworks? Right now it's basically &quot;impossible&quot; (from what I've been able to gather) - the best way to test custom rules is to run them under VS or FxCop manually, which is less than ideal. Has this changed?</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Jason Bock</p> http://blogs.msdn.com/fxcop/archive/2008/10/30/new-code-analysis-features-in-visual-studio-2010-september-08-ctp.aspx#9030211Mon, 03 Nov 2008 04:26:10 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9030211Tom Marsh MSFT<p>The rule APIs are not available as a public SDK in the CTP release. We are still working on these and hoping to get them in for RTM, but it's going to be tight. Having a good unit testing story for rules is also part of our goal with the public SDK.</p> <p>Tom</p>
