Code Cracker is a Roslyn-based analyzer library for C# and Visual Basic that provides code diagnostics, refactorings, and code style analysis. It can be installed as a NuGet package for build-time analysis or as a Visual Studio extension for IDE-wide analyzers.

Use cases

  • find empty catch blocks and bad exception handling in C# code
  • enforce code style rules like using nameof instead of string literals
  • run static code analysis during builds on CI servers
  • get automatic refactorings and code fixes in Visual Studio
  • analyze both C# and VB.NET projects with Roslyn diagnostics

When to choose

  • you want Roslyn-based diagnostics integrated into your .NET build or IDE
  • you need analyzers configurable per-project and shareable via source control
  • you work with both C# and Visual Basic codebases

When to avoid

  • you need analyzers for languages other than C# or VB
  • you want actively developed cutting-edge rules - the project releases infrequently
  • you use an IDE without Roslyn analyzer support
