Visual Studio Team System
How to: Update Code Analysis Check-in Policy

You can enable code analysis as part of the check-in policy to control and improve the quality of the code that is checked into the code base. After the policy is specified, team members can synchronize their code analysis settings for the solution against the server policy settings.

This feature is available only if you are using Team Foundation Server.

Code analysis settings apply to the local projects whereas the check-in policy is set at the solution level. When you update your code analysis settings from the check-in policy, you will be updating all projects in the solution

You can update the code analysis settings for the solution in one of the following ways:

  • Replace the current code analysis policy settings of your solution with the team policy settings on the server.

  • Add the team policy settings to the current code analysis settings of your solution.

    Updating policy settings will change your active project configuration. You should consider creating a separate configuration for check-ins; after you create a new configuration, update server settings. Check-in policy applies at the project level.
