Enabling stylecop.json

At this time, the code fix is not able to fully configure the newly-created stylecop.json file for use. This is tracked in bug report dotnet/roslyn#4655. In the mean time, users must manually perform the following additional steps after creating the stylecop.json file.

In Visual Studio 2017 and 2019:

  1. Select the file in Solution Explorer.
  2. In the Properties window, set the value for Build Action to:
    • For most projects: AdditionalFiles
    • For projects using the new project system, including .NET Core and .NET Standard projects: C# analyzer additional file.

In Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 and newer:

  1. Select the file in Solution Explorer.
  2. In the Properties window set the value for Build Action to AdditionalFiles.

In older versions of Visual Studio 2015:

  1. Right click the project in Solution Explorer and select Unload Project. If you are asked to save changes, click Yes.

  2. Right click the unloaded project in Solution Explorer and select Edit ProjectName.csproj.

  3. Locate the following item in the project file.

    <None Include="stylecop.json" />
  4. Change the definition to the following.

    <AdditionalFiles Include="stylecop.json" />
  5. Save and close the project file.

  6. Right click the unloaded project in Solution Explorer and select Reload Project.
