After a very long time, an Microsoft FxCop update has been released. Here is a list of all that has changed:

• 200+ bug fixes that reduce noise, missing analysis and rule crashes
• Support for analyzing anonymous methods and lambda expressions
• New option for skipping analysis over tool generated code
• Spell checker libraries now ship in the box
• Changes in the way references are resolved and located
• Better support for C++/CLI and the Compact Framework
• Language ‘friendly’ API names in the UI and resolutions (ie Visual Basic syntax if running over a Visual Basic binary)
• New globalization, design and usage rules
• New rule for targeting specific versions of the Framework
• Performance improvements that cut analysis by 2x and use half as much memory
• Documentation that is now available on MSDN
