All methods in an assembly are marked with a one of two attributes: [Bottleneck]

  • 0

All methods in an assembly are marked with a one of two attributes: [Bottleneck] or [Caching]. [Caching] methods do some caching and they should be implemented in the clearest way, since they are called rarely. On contrary, [Bottleneck] methods are called every time the assembly is being used by a server (often enough), so they should be optimized.

Is there a way to check:
1. Every method is marked with one of the attributes.
2. No [Bottleneck] method calls [Caching] method.

I’d like to have this tool integrated with VS 2010.

Regards,

    You could always write your own custom tool, using either reflection, Mono.Cecil or write your own FxCop / CodeAnalysis custom rule(s).

    You could also use NDepend, which allows you to basically write “SQL like” queries upon your assemblies. Using this CQL (Code Query Language) you could check for your constraints. NDepend integrates into Visual Studio and also has a command line version for automated builds.

    Especially with your 2nd requirement (call graph) I’m not sure if NDepend can do that. Your own tools could certainly, as could be done with a custom FxCop rule.

    EDIT: Looking at NDepend’s CQL specification, I’d be inclined to say that the 2nd requirement indeed is not (easily) doable.
