VCCLCompilerTool.EnablePREfast Property
Gets or sets whether Native Code Analysis is enabled.
Namespace: Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine
Assembly: Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.VCProjectEngine.dll)
Syntax
Property EnablePREfast As Boolean
Dim instance As VCCLCompilerTool
Dim value As Boolean
value = instance.EnablePREfast
instance.EnablePREfast = value
bool EnablePREfast { get; set; }
property bool EnablePREfast {
bool get ();
void set (bool value);
}
function get EnablePREfast () : boolean
function set EnablePREfast (value : boolean)
Property Value
Type: System.Boolean
true to enable code analysis (/analyze).
Remarks
Additional options can be set using the AdditionalOptions property.
Nota
/analyze is only available in Enterprise (Team Developer) versions for x86 compilers.
Examples
The following example demonstrates how to use the EnablePREfast and AdditionalOptions properties to set the /analyze:WX- switch. (Both properties are required to do this.) Specifying /analyze:WX- means that code analysis warnings will not be treated as errors when compiling with /WX. For more information, see /analyze (Enterprise Code Analysis).
To run this example, enter and run this example as outlined in How to: Compile and Run the Automation Object Model Code Examples. Then, in the new instance of Visual Studio, load a Visual C++ project and use the Add-in Manager to activate the add-in.
