FXCop Analyze shows dialog “Locate Assembly Reference”
30-Jul-0909 Leave a comment
If when using FXCop Analyze you get a dialog box entitled "locate assembly reference"
- Go to the project references.
- Find the related reference and note it’s location in the file system.
- Return to FXCop and browse to this location and put in dialog box
Also Crystal Decisions.Shared lives in C:\WINDOWS\assembly\GAC_MSIL\CrystalDecisions.Shared\10.5.3700.0__692fb ….
Unable to navigate to this or find a copy of the file. So for GAC use following
- Open FxCop 1.36.
- Click menu: “Project | Options…”
- Click the “Spelling & Analysis” tab in the “Project Options” dialog.
- Select the “Search Global Assembly Cache for missing references” option (by default it is unselected).

Also see that the Config file "FxCopCmd.exe.config" may be edited. See
