Microsoft StyleCop 4.3 and FxCop 1.36 Released

The guys from the code analysis team have just released new versions of their popular tools:

StyleCop 4.3, previously known as Microsoft Source Analysis Tool for C# version 4.2, integrates with both Visual Studio 2005 and 2008 and analyses your C# code for bad programming practices. Can be somewhat annoying, since it reports as errors things that we usually do - see for yourself! Basically, it is the source code counterpart for FxCop, which only works with compiled assemblies.
You can read all about it here and get it here. You must uninstall the previous version prior to installing this one.
An SDK that allows extension is expected in the near future.

FxCop 1.36 has also finally arrived, and you can read about it here and download it here.
It is worth mentioning that it is basically the same that comes integrated with Visual Studio 2008 SP1.

Congratulations to the code analysis team!
