C# 9.0 is taking shape, and I’d like to share our thinking on some of the major features we’re adding to this next version of the language.

The #line directive is added by the preprocessor and can then be used to help the developer understand which file and line a particular code fragment in the preprocessed file refers to. The #line directive tells code-processing tools to change the compiler's internally stored line number and filename to a given line number and filename. Subsequent lines will be numbered relative to that position. Explicit preprocessing is mostly used for debugging or by various generators. In any case, a bug breaking this functionality may have a variety of negative effects. One of our users was faced with such a problem in Visual Studio 2019.

The purpose of this article is to give a general overview of the features of the PVS-Studio static analyzer. The simplest and most informative way to do this is to show the tool in action. We'll be sharing examples demonstrating the analysis process using the Visual Studio plugin, the algorithm of running the analyzer under Linux, and analysis log import into SonarQube.

Due to a series of different events, the beginning of beta testing of the plugin for the Rider and C# analyzer for Linux / macOS was a little delayed. However, we are pleased to announce that this day has come — today we are launching the beta test.

This post continues the series of articles, which can well be called "horrors for developers". This time it will also touch upon a typical pattern of typos related to the usage of numbers 0, 1, 2. The language you're writing in doesn't really matter: it can be C, C++, C#, or Java. If you're using constants 0, 1, 2 or variables' names contain these numbers, most likely, Freddie will come to visit you at night. Go on, read and don't say we didn't warn you.

We’re happy to announce the next release of PlatformIO Core 4.2.0

DevOps is a methodology aiming at establishing closer collaboration between programmers and system administrators in the software development process. A DevOps engineer is a specialist working on the intersection of these two fields. A DevOps engineer's primary objective is to take the predictability, efficiency, and security of software development to the highest level possible. DevSecOps is a further development of the DevOps concept that, besides automation, addresses the issues of code quality and reliability assurance.

There are many ways that can assist in improvement the program’s quality. In this article, we invite you to consider one of them – static code analysis.

Emby is quite a popular media server along with Plex and Kodi. In this article, we'll discuss the bugs found in its source code with the static analyzer PVS-Studio. The remark "Built with ReSharper" on the project's official website makes the analysis even more interesting.

Hi to all fans of bugs! The New Year is coming soon, so it is time to take stock of the the outgoing year. By tradition, we're glad to present the top list of errors found by the PVS-Studio team in open C# projects in 2019. Ready? Then let's get going.

We’re excited to announce the release of .NET Core 3.1. It’s really just a small set of fixes and refinements over .NET Core 3.0, which we released just over two months ago. The most important feature is that .NET Core 3.1 is an long-term supported (LTS) release and will be supported for three years. As we’ve done in the past, we wanted to take our time before releasing the next LTS release. The extra two months (after .NET Core 3.0) allowed us to select and implement the right set of improvements over what was already a very stable base. .NET Core 3.1 is now ready to be used wherever your imagination or business need takes it.
