I don't either bwhittington14-Oct-05 5:00 bwhittington 14-Oct-05 5:00  I would love top use tools such as these but my workplace has way to many programs that were made from the early 1990's to the present. And even though we have a fairly large IT dept none of us have enough time to update our projects to newer ideologies and coding standards to be able to use these tools. Brett A. Whittington Application Developer Code analysis tool for PHP / c# Madhu Kampurath13-Oct-05 3:06 Madhu Kampurath 13-Oct-05 3:06  Does anybody know any code analysis tools for PHP and ASP.Net ? I have been searching for one for long time. Possibly, it should produce list of classes, methods, their accessibility, parameters, attributes and all private variables used in any method. Pictorial representation ? More happy. I am to develop a documentation tool. Thanks Madhu Re: Code analysis tool for PHP / c# Almighty Bob13-Oct-05 19:57 Almighty Bob 13-Oct-05 19:57  not asp (cant stand it), but Zend Studio has code analysis built into it (and gives you much of the same functionality as visual studio does w/ visual representations of stuff, like the class view). /bb|[^b]{2}/ I don't... Carl Mercier12-Oct-05 14:59 Carl Mercier 12-Oct-05 14:59  I don't use any because they all give me way too many things to fix! Re: I don't... Peter Nirschl13-Oct-05 6:52 Peter Nirschl 13-Oct-05 6:52  Yeah! That's it! Kind regards, Peter Nirschl peter.nirschl@gmx.net FxCop Michael P Butler11-Oct-05 20:20 Michael P Butler 11-Oct-05 20:20  A few weeks back, I recently ran my LxFramework library through FxCop. I was so embarassed about the results. I hadn't realised how sloppy I had become. It took me four days to fix up the library to FxCop standards. So I'm all for Code Analysis tools now, they are even more important when you are a lone programmer.

It was truly scary seeing how many warnings we had across the entire solution. I've learnt a great deal from looking at the warnings produced by my own (and other people's!) code, and I can say without any doubt that I'm a far better developer for it. Every couple of months now I tighten up our warning policy a little and go back over the code in our current project to eradicate any warnings that doing so uncovered. In the course of doing so, I've found some real howlers at times!

How about my brain? tom_dx11-Oct-05 13:27 tom_dx 11-Oct-05 13:27  Best tool I received and I'm keeping it # cause I don't want to forget but instead learn new things, that's the whole process of learning right?... by doing Your comments? IM PROUD TO BE A GMAIL; Re: How about my brain? Super Lloyd11-Oct-05 14:53 Super Lloyd 11-Oct-05 14:53  but the thing is: is your brain updated to the latest (and most complete) cross code scanning analysis pattern? does it performs it all (on your whole project) in 8.6200005 seconds? anyway, I do just like you as I said I have tryed FxCop, and I was not convince, too much garbage, so if there was a usefull advice, I missed it. Maybe I should try again by removing many garbage rules.... Stunned Chris Maunder11-Oct-05 10:49 Chris Maunder 11-Oct-05 10:49  66% of developers don't use *any* code analysis tools on their source?

Re: Stunned devvvy13-Oct-05 17:45 devvvy 13-Oct-05 17:45  Exactly, when was the last time management actually encourages "quality" (ie. adequate project funding, appropriate project planning...) If they don't ask for it, don't volunteer. Hey, it compiles - ship it! Vikram A Punathambekar12-Oct-05 20:44 Vikram A Punathambekar 12-Oct-05 20:44  Sadly, that's the attitude most people seem to have. I too answered None (partly since we don't have a guideline on that, and partly because I'm a tyro), but I'll take a look at FxCop. Cheers, Vikram.

Re: Stunned Shog913-Oct-05 17:14 Shog9 13-Oct-05 17:14  Might be interesting to do a survey regarding code reviews / code inspections (you know, the sort that use actual people to go over new code looking for design problems and dodgy techniques)... Post faster, post more, post now Re: Stunned bwhittington14-Oct-05 5:03 bwhittington 14-Oct-05 5:03  My companies code review is kind of a joke. We have a few people that are supposed to be doing code reviews but not all of their time is dedicated to do so. Many times, our code reviewers are fully booked in a month so they barely even have time to look at others code. I have heard our code reviewers say that they actually learn a lot more being on the review team than actually doing the project. (That is, if they have time to check it over). Brett A.
