As I mentioned
earlier I presented CodeIt.Right in Portland at PADNUG last week. I had great
time, thank you all guys and girls - you are wonderful and very friendly audience!
I'm glad I got to know better some of you during the "informal" meeting at Gustav's
after the presentation.
Few of you asked if the slides will be available, so I'm published PDF version of
the slides on our community page - PADNUG
CodeIt.Right Presentation Slides. If you need the PPT version - just drop me a
note at the email address on the first page of the slides.
Thanks again, it was great visiting Portland!

v1.1 progress & Enterprise Edition
The v1.1 release that includes .NET 3.5 syntax has been slightly delayed. There are
two reasons for that - we had too much fun at the MVP Summit mid-April and we made
few significant changes to the parsing and refactoring engines to support the 3.5
syntax. The coding part is done, we cover all of the .NET 3.5 now. And we are going
through a major testing phase as the base application layer responsible for all .NET
versions was affected. We are currently targeting end of May for the v1.1 release
date.
Meanwhile, the Enterprise Edition of CodeIt.Right is pretty much ready - we
should have beta in a couple of weeks. Enterprise Edition has two parts - developer
client and Profile Authoring/Admin piece. The latter, in addition to the Profile Editor
features, has the ability to push profiles to developer workstations and limit developers
to use only the profiles that were published by a Team Lead/Lead Developer/Architect.
Tutorials
We have published CodeIt.Right SDK Online Documentation and a couple of new tutorials:
All tutorials are now listed on the new dedicated Tutorials page.
Presentation
I will be speaking in Protland at PADNUG this Tuesday, May 6th at 6:30pm - more details
here - http://www.padnug.org/padnug/meetings.aspx?ID=145
If you are in the area and want to hear about coding guidelines, best practices, ask
questions and see a demo of CodeIt.Right,
come join us. I will bring some swag for giveaway, free licenses and discount codes.

This CodeIt.Right rule update includes fixes as
well as 3 new security rules.
New rules:
-
Do not declare read only mutable reference types (Security)
-
Seal methods that satisfy private interfaces (Security)
-
Secure GetObjectData overrides (Security)
These rules are included with the default profile and you will only need
to follow the wizard to merge them into your custom profiles.
Fixes:
-
Rule "Do not override operator equals on reference types" incorrectly triggered violation
for the "Equals" method. Now this rules only reports violation for the operator "=="
override.
-
Fixed "If the type is a generic type, CIR adds the apostrophe-count string to the
class name for the deserialization constructor"
-
Fixed "If there is no explicit default parameterless constructor, adding the deserialization
constructor causes errors in all derived classes that called the parameterless constructor"
As a reminder, this set of rules is distributed using the Rule AutoUpdate feature which
triggers 15 minutes after you start Visual Studio. If you turned the feature off,
you can manually start the update wizard from the CodeIt.Right/Help
& Support/Update Rules menu.

CodeIt.Right is finally finished after
about 3 years in the making. That's right, CodeIt.Right is Released!
It is out in its all new shiny package :)
I would like to make a pause here and extend my deepest gratitude towards everyone
who helped make this release possible. From the SubMain development team, the advisory
board members, to everyone who participated in the community and contributed feedback
over the year since we released the first public beta.
CodeIt.Right, my 7 years long dream come true. The tool it out! Cheers! (I truly believe
that code analysis coupled with automatic refactoring will change the way .NET developer
teams and solo developers work!)
With the touchy-feely stuff out of the way, let's get back to the actual product,
shall we? :)
If you are new to CodeIt.Right:
What's
next?
This
not a road map per se, just highlights of where we are heading with CodeIt.Right over
the next months:
-
We will keep publishing new rules as they are developed and will push
them to you using the Auto-Update feature
-
We will publish more tutorials and how tos on using the product and developing your
own custom rules using CodeIt.Right SDK
-
Create
community section over at http://community.submain.com and
allow custom developed rules shared with other users
-
Version
v1.1 is coming in 4-6 weeks - .NET 3.5 syntax, merging profiles, Pivot View improvements,
generating team guidelines document template from profile, and of course, more
rules!
-
Version
v2.0 is preliminarily scheduled for summer 2008 and will introduce VSTS integration
and manual refactorings (we will merge CodeIt.Once into CodeIt.Right)
So, don't wait, go ahead, download CodeIt.Right - http://submain.com/download/codeit.right - play
with it, explore the rules included in the box, get out of the box and try developing
your own custom rules, share them, ask
questions, tell us what you think!
