How does it compare to fxCop?
- nahname 14y agoNight and day. FxCop requires days of customization to include something into your build step. Even then, the recommendations are weak at best. Furthermore, think back to Carmack's comment on how static analysis has to at least be in your build step. ReSharper has much better recommendations that require almost no tweaking (variable names you might disagree with). The best part, it tells you these recommendations at the time of writing. This is one of ReSharpers best features (IMO). Not only do programmers write better code with, they often write code that works the first time and compiling becomes just a technicality. Code improvement is noticeably better. So much so, that when my company is hiring and I am reviewing the candidates submission; I can immediately tell whether or not they were using ReSharper. Cannot recommend this tool enough. I feel crippled without it in VS.
- rbellio 14y agoAnother ReSharper user here that has used FxCop as well. I think both tools are awesome, but ReSharper's ability to do the code analysis on the fly is huge for me. Just be aware of your default shortcuts if you look into ReSharper. I remember that some of them change on you.
