As I had rebuilt my dev box to install Win 7, and freshly intsalled VS 2008, I was wondering why I was not getting the code analysis tab in the project proerties - I use C#.

It requires Visual Studio Team System 2008 for it to work. I chose the Test Suite option. Then installed updates and afterwards rebooted for the updates to take place.

The you are good to go! Happy FxCopping :)

]]> Disable Close X button in Winforms using C# https://docs.microsoft.com/archive/blogs/atosah/disable-close-x-button-in-winforms-using-c Fri, 18 May 2007 18:31:00 GMT https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/atosah/2007/05/18/disable-close-x-button-in-winforms-using-c/ Demo code on how to disable the X button in menu bar in a window. I found a lot of posts on this in VB, but none for C#. So if you are a C# fan like me, this is for you...

1. There is no direct way to disbale the X button, like there is a property for Maximize button called MaximizeBox = false.

2. This is implemented by importing unmanaged dll "user32" and calling it's functions.

3. Before you use this code, make sure to add a Close button in your form so that you can close your app. See the attached screen shot Disabled.jpg. Below is the code for this form.

Add the following library

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

Declare the following as class level variable

const int MF_BYPOSITION = 0x400;

[DllImport("User32")]

private static extern int RemoveMenu(IntPtr hMenu, int nPosition, int wFlags);

[DllImport("User32")]

private static extern IntPtr GetSystemMenu(IntPtr hWnd, bool bRevert);

[DllImport("User32")]

private static extern int GetMenuItemCount(IntPtr hWnd);

In the Form_Load() event, write the following code:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

        IntPtr hMenu = GetSystemMenu(this.Handle, false);

        int menuItemCount = GetMenuItemCount(hMenu);

        RemoveMenu(hMenu, menuItemCount - 1, MF_BYPOSITION);

}

4. Run it. Voila! you are done. If you know of a ay to do it without calling unmanaged code, please do let me know.
