The preferable way to use the analyzers is to add the nuget package ReflectionAnalyzers to the project(s).
The severity of individual rules may be configured using rule set files in Visual Studio 2015.
ReflectionAnalyzers can be installed using:
- Paket
- NuGet command line
- NuGet Package Manager in Visual Studio.
Install using the command line:
paket add ReflectionAnalyzers --project <project>
or if you prefer NuGet
Install-Package ReflectionAnalyzers
