We run Code Analysis on all our source files. One of our source files is a Linq-To-SQL generated file, which we have no control over the generated output. The generated code is producing Code Analysis warnings that I would like to suppress. Is there any way I can suppress CA warnings in a code generated file that doesn’t involve creating attributes and/or pragma’s in the code itself (which will get overwritten each time the file is generated)?

    Do your classes have the [GeneratedCode] attribute? If so you can get FxCop to ignore them:

    Using an FxCop project:

    1. Open your FxCop project in FxCop
    2. Choose Project -> Options -> Spelling & Analysis
    3. Check Suppress analysis results against generated code
    4. Click OK

    Via the command-line:

    1. Pass the /ignoregeneratedcode switch, for example:
         FxCopCmd.exe /file:MyAssembly.dll /out:AnalysisResults.xml /ignoregeneratedcode
