How to make an exception to certain StyleCop rules?

Possible Duplicate:
How to suppress a StyleCop warning?

Currently I'm setting up StyleCop for our projects and I stumbled on one rule of StyleCop. It's about the SA1300 naming rule:

SA1300: namespace names begin with an upper-case letter: iCompanyName.

So my company starts with a lower-case letter. And various product names do also. Therefore, is there a possibility to add exceptions to this rule in the Settings.StyleCop file?

I'd like to prevent to write custom StyleCop rules using C#.

Thanks in advance for your replies.

edit: I realize I should have noted that I don't actually want to disable/suppress the StyleCop rule completely. I'd just like to make some exceptions on this naming rule.

Solution

  • The SA1300 rule is not configurable (at least in version 4.4). If you don't like its behaviour and don't want to disable the rule entirely, you will need to use a substitute custom rule. You might be able to find one available from a third-party such as the StyleCop+ project. If not, you're pretty much stuck rolling your own...
