Can't You Even Spell Your Own Company's Name?!

Another quick story from this last week’s upgrade from VS 2005 to VS 2008.  I ran code analysis from 2008 on the code base and started to get spelling warnings all over the place.  The amusing thing was that it was telling me that the name of the company, which is in the namespace, was spelled wrong.  My initial reaction was, “Good grief” (said with the best Charlie Brown imitation I could muster…which still wasn’t very good).

A quick Google session later and I’ve got the information I need to teach Code Analysis the way the company spells its own name (or at least abbreviates it).  Check out how to add your own custom dictionaries to your projects courtesy of the VS Code Analysis Team. 

Side Note: It looks like they are still releasing updates to FxCop.  Version 1.36 was released on August 19th.
