Chances are,<br \/>\nyou\u2019ve been using them for years without even realizing it. Many features in<br \/>\nVisual Studio, like code fixes, refactoring suggestions, and error diagnostics,<br \/>\nrely on or even just <em>are<\/em> Analyzers or CodeFixes to enhance your development<br \/>\nprocess. They\u2019ve become such an integral part of modern development that we<br \/>\noften take them for granted as just \u201chow things work\u201d.<\/p>\n\n<p>The coolest thing: This Roslyn based compiler platform is not a black box.<br \/>\nThey provide an extremely rich API, and not only Microsoft\u2019s Visual Studio IDE<br \/>\nor Compiler teams can create Analyzers. Everyone can. And that\u2019s why WinForms<br \/>\npicked up on this technology to improve the WinForms coding experience.<\/p>\n<h2>It\u2019s Just the Beginning \u2014 More to Come<\/h2>\n<p>With .NET 9 we\u2019ve laid the foundational infrastructure for <strong>WinForms-specific<br \/>\nanalyzers<\/strong> and introduced the first set of rules. These analyzers are designed<br \/>\nto address key areas like security, stability, and productivity. And while this<br \/>\nis just the start, we\u2019re committed to expanding their scope in future releases,<br \/>\nwith more rules and features on the horizon.<\/p>\n<p>So, let\u2019s take a real look of what we got with the first sets of Analyzers we\u2019re<br \/>\nintroducing for .NET 9:<\/p>\n<h2>Guidance for picking correct InvokeAsync Overloads<\/h2>\n<p>With .NET 9 we have introduced a series of new Async APIs for WinForms. <a href=\"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/introducing-winforms-async-apis\/\">This<br \/>\nblog<br \/>\npost<\/a><br \/>\ndescribes the new WinForms Async feature in detail. This is one of the first<br \/>\nareas where we felt that WinForms Analyzers can help a lot in preventing issues<br \/>\nwith your Async code.<\/p>\n<p>One challenge when working with the new Control.InvokeAsync API is selecting<br \/>\nthe correct overload from the following options:<\/p>\n<p>public async Task InvokeAsync(Action callback, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)<br \/>\npublic async Task&lt;T&gt; InvokeAsync&lt;T&gt;(Func&lt;T&gt; callback, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)<br \/>\npublic async Task InvokeAsync(Func&lt;CancellationToken, ValueTask&gt; callback, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)<br \/>\npublic async Task&lt;T&gt; InvokeAsync&lt;T&gt;(Func&lt;CancellationToken, ValueTask&lt;T&gt;&gt; callback, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)<\/p>\n<p>Each overload supports different combinations of synchronous and asynchronous<br \/>\nmethods, with or without return values. The linked blog post provides<br \/>\ncomprehensive background information on these APIs.<\/p>\n<p>Selecting the wrong overload however can lead to unstable code paths in your<br \/>\napplication. To mitigate this, we\u2019ve implemented an analyzer to help developers<br \/>\nchoose the most appropriate InvokeAsync overload for their specific use cases.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the potential issue: InvokeAsync can asynchronously invoke both<br \/>\nsynchronous and asynchronous methods. For asynchronous methods, you might pass a<br \/>\nFunc&lt;Task&gt;, and expect it to be awaited, but it will not. Func&lt;T&gt; is<br \/>\nexclusively for asynchronously invoking a synchronous called method \u2013 of which<br \/>\nFunc&lt;Task&gt; is just an unfortunate special case.<\/p>\n<p>So, in other words, the problem arises because InvokeAsync can accept <em>any<\/em><br \/>\nFunc&lt;T&gt;. But only Func&lt;CancellationToken, ValueTask&gt; is properly awaited by<br \/>\nthe API. If you pass a Func&lt;Task&gt; without the correct signature\u2014one that<br \/>\ndoesn\u2019t take a CancellationToken and return a ValueTask\u2014it won\u2019t be awaited.<br \/>\nThis leads to a \u201cfire-and-forget\u201d scenario, where exceptions within the function<br \/>\nare not handled correctly. If such a function then later throws an exception, it<br \/>\nwill may corrupt data or go so far as to even crash your entire application.<\/p>\n<p>Take a look at the following scenario:<\/p>\n<p>private async void StartButtonClick(object sender, EventArgs e)<br \/>\n{<br \/>\n   _btnStartStopWatch.Text = _btnStartStopWatch.Text != &#8220;Stop&#8221; ? &#8220;Stop&#8221; : &#8220;Start&#8221;;<\/p>\n<p>    await Task.Run(async () =&gt;<br \/>\n    {<br \/>\n        while (true)<br \/>\n        {<br \/>\n            await this.InvokeAsync(UpdateUiAsync);<br \/>\n        }<br \/>\n   });<\/p>\n<p>   \/\/ ****<br \/>\n   \/\/ The actual UI update method<br \/>\n   \/\/ ****<br \/>\n   async Task UpdateUiAsync()<br \/>\n   {<br \/>\n         _lblStopWatch.Text = $&#8221;{DateTime.Now:HH:mm:ss &#8211; fff}&#8221;;<br \/>\n         await Task.Delay(20);<br \/>\n   }<br \/>\n}<\/p>\n<p>This is a typical scenario, where the overload of InvokeAsync which is supposed<br \/>\nto just return something <em>other<\/em> than a task is accidentally used. But the<br \/>\nAnalyzer is pointing that out:<\/p>\n\n<p>So, being notified by this, it also becomes clear that we actually need to<br \/>\nintroduce a cancellation token so we can gracefully end the running task, either<br \/>\nwhen the user clicks the button again or \u2013 which is more important \u2013 when the<br \/>\nForm actually gets closed. Otherwise, the Task would continue to run while the<br \/>\nForm gets disposed. And that would lead to a crash:<\/p>\n<p>    private async void ButtonClick(object sender, EventArgs e)<br \/>\n    {<br \/>\n        if (_stopWatchToken.CanBeCanceled)<br \/>\n        {<br \/>\n            _btnStartStopWatch.Text = &#8220;Start&#8221;;<br \/>\n            _stopWatchTokenSource.Cancel();<br \/>\n            _stopWatchTokenSource.Dispose();<br \/>\n            _stopWatchTokenSource = new CancellationTokenSource();<br \/>\n            _stopWatchToken = CancellationToken.None;<\/p>\n<p>            return;<br \/>\n        }<\/p>\n<p>        _stopWatchToken = _stopWatchTokenSource.Token;<br \/>\n        _btnStartStopWatch.Text = &#8220;Stop&#8221;;<\/p>\n<p>        await Task.Run(async () =&gt;<br \/>\n        {<br \/>\n            while (true)<br \/>\n            {<br \/>\n                try<br \/>\n                {<br \/>\n                    await this.InvokeAsync(UpdateUiAsync, _stopWatchToken);<br \/>\n                }<br \/>\n                catch (TaskCanceledException)<br \/>\n                {<br \/>\n                    break;<br \/>\n                }<br \/>\n            }<br \/>\n        });<\/p>\n<p>        \/\/ ****<br \/>\n        \/\/ The actual UI update method<br \/>\n        \/\/ ****<br \/>\n        async ValueTask UpdateUiAsync(CancellationToken cancellation)<br \/>\n        {<br \/>\n            _lblStopWatch.Text = $&#8221;{DateTime.Now:HH:mm:ss &#8211; fff}&#8221;;<br \/>\n            await Task.Delay(20, cancellation);<br \/>\n        }<br \/>\n    }<\/p>\n<p>    protected override void OnFormClosing(FormClosingEventArgs e)<br \/>\n    {<br \/>\n        base.OnFormClosing(e);<br \/>\n        _stopWatchTokenSource.Cancel();<br \/>\n    }<\/p>\n<p>The analyzer addresses this by detecting incompatible usages of InvokeAsync and<br \/>\nguiding you to select the correct overload. This ensures stable, predictable<br \/>\nbehavior and proper exception handling in your asynchronous code.<\/p>\n<h2>Preventing Leaks of Design-Time Business Data<\/h2>\n<p>When developing custom controls or business control logic classes derived from<br \/>\nUserControl, it\u2019s common to manage its behavior and appearance using<br \/>\nproperties. However, a common issue arises when these properties are<br \/>\ninadvertently set at design time. This typically happens because there is no<br \/>\nmechanism in place to guard against such conditions during the design phase.<\/p>\n\n<p>If these properties are not properly configured to control their code serialization behavior, sensitive data set during design time may unintentionally leak into the generated code. Such leaks can result in:<\/p>\n<p>Sensitive data being exposed in source code, potentially published on platforms like GitHub.<br \/>\nDesign-time data being embedded into resource files, either because necessary<br \/>\nTypeConverters for the property type in question are missing, or when the form<br \/>\nis localized.<\/p>\n<p>Both scenarios pose significant risks to the integrity and security of your<br \/>\napplication.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, we aim to avoid resource serialization whenever possible. With<br \/>\n.NET 9, the <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/standard\/serialization\/binaryformatter-security-guide\">Binary Formatter and related APIs have been phased<br \/>\nout<\/a><br \/>\ndue to security and maintainability concerns. This makes it even more critical<br \/>\nto carefully control what data gets serialized and how.<\/p>\n<p>The Binary Formatter was historically used to serialize objects, but it had<br \/>\nnumerous security vulnerabilities that made it unsuitable for modern<br \/>\napplications. In .NET 9, we eliminated this serializer entirely to reduce attack<br \/>\nsurfaces and improve the reliability of applications. Any reliance on resource<br \/>\nserialization has the potential to reintroduce these risks, so it is essential to adopt safer<br \/>\npractices.<\/p>\n<p>To help you, the developer, address this issue, we\u2019ve introduced a<br \/>\nWinForms-specific analyzer. This analyzer activates when all the following<br \/>\nmechanisms to control the CodeDOM serialization process for properties are<br \/>\nmissing:<\/p>\n<p><strong>SerializationVisibilityAttribute<\/strong>: This attribute controls how (or if)<br \/>\nthe CodeDOM serializers should serialize the content of a property.<br \/>\nThe property is <strong>not read-only<\/strong>, as the CodeDOM serializer ignores<br \/>\nread-only properties by default.<br \/>\n<strong>DefaultValueAttribute<\/strong>: This attribute defines the default value of a<br \/>\nproperty. If applied, the CodeDOM serializer only serializes the property<br \/>\nwhen the current value at design time differs from the default value.<br \/>\nA corresponding <strong>private bool ShouldSerialize&lt;PropertyName&gt;() method<\/strong> is<br \/>\nnot implemented. This method is called at design (serialization) time to<br \/>\ndetermine whether the property\u2019s content should be serialized.<\/p>\n<p>By ensuring at least one of these mechanisms is in place, you can avoid<br \/>\nunexpected serialization behavior and ensure that your properties are handled<br \/>\ncorrectly during the design-time CodeDOM serialization process.<\/p>\n<h2>But\u2026this Analyzer broke my whole Solution!<\/h2>\n<p>So let\u2019s say you\u2019ve developed a domain-specific UserControl, like in the<br \/>\nscreenshot above, in .NET 8. And now, you\u2019re retargeting your project to .NET 9.<br \/>\nWell, obviously, at that moment, the analyzer kicks in, and you might see<br \/>\nsomething like this:<\/p>\n\n<p>In contrast to the previously discussed Async Analyzer, this one has a Roslyn<br \/>\nCodeFix attached to it. If you want to address the issue by instructing the<br \/>\nCodeDOM serializer to unconditionally <strong>never<\/strong> serialize the property content,<br \/>\nyou can use the CodeFix to make the necessary changes:<\/p>\n\n<p>As you can see, you can even have them fixed in one go throughout the whole<br \/>\ndocument. In most cases, this is already the right thing to do: the analyzer<br \/>\nadds the SerializationVisibilityAttribute on top of each flagged property,<br \/>\nensuring it won\u2019t be serialized unintentionally, which is exactly what we want:<\/p>\n<p>   .<br \/>\n   .<br \/>\n   .<br \/>\n    [DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Hidden)]<br \/>\n    public string NameText<br \/>\n    {<br \/>\n        get =&gt; textBoxName.Text;<br \/>\n        set =&gt; textBoxName.Text = value;<br \/>\n    }<\/p>\n<p>    [DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Hidden)]<br \/>\n    public string EmailText<br \/>\n    {<br \/>\n        get =&gt; textBoxEmail.Text;<br \/>\n        set =&gt; textBoxEmail.Text = value;<br \/>\n    }<\/p>\n<p>    [DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Hidden)]<br \/>\n    public string PhoneText<br \/>\n    {<br \/>\n        get =&gt; textBoxPhone.Text;<br \/>\n        set =&gt; textBoxPhone.Text = value;<br \/>\n    }<br \/>\n   .<br \/>\n   .<br \/>\n   .<\/p>\n<h3>Copilot to the rescue!<\/h3>\n<p>There is an even more efficient way to handle necessary edit-amendments for<br \/>\nproperty attributes. The question you might want to ask yourself is: if there<br \/>\nare no attributes applied at all to control certain aspects of the property,<br \/>\ndoes it make sense to not only ensure proper serialization guidance but also to<br \/>\napply other design-time attributes?<\/p>\n<p>But then again, would the effort required be even greater\u2014or would it?<\/p>\n<p>Well, what if we utilize Copilot to amend <em>all<\/em> relevant property attributes<br \/>\nthat are really useful at design-time, like the DescriptionAttribute or the<br \/>\nCategoryAttribute? Let\u2019s give it a try, like this:<\/p>\n\n<p>Depending on the language model you picked for Copilot, you should see a result<br \/>\nwhere we not only resolve the issues the analyzer pointed out, but Copilot also<br \/>\ntakes care of adding the remaining attributes that make sense in the context.<\/p>\n<p>Copilot shows you the code it wants to add, and you can merge the suggested<br \/>\nchanges with just one mouse click.<\/p>\n\n<p>And those kind of issues are surely not the only area where Copilot can assist<br \/>\nyou bigtime in the effort to modernize your existing WinForms applications.<\/p>\n<p>But if the analyzer flagged hundreds of issues throughout your entire solution,<br \/>\ndon\u2019t panic! There are more options to configure the severity of an analyzer at<br \/>\nthe code file, project, or even solution level:<\/p>\n<h3>Suppressing Analyzers Based on Scope<\/h3>\n<p>Firstly, you have the option to suppress the analyzer(s) on different scopes:<\/p>\n<p><strong>In Source:<\/strong> This option inserts a #pragma warning disable directive<br \/>\ndirectly in the source file around the flagged code. This approach is useful<br \/>\nfor localized, one-off suppressions where the analyzer warning is unnecessary<br \/>\nor irrelevant. For example:<\/p>\n<p>#pragma warning disable WFO1000<br \/>\npublic string SomeProperty { get; set; }<br \/>\n#pragma warning restore WFO1000<\/p>\n<p><strong>In Suppression File:<\/strong> This adds the suppression to a file named<br \/>\n<em>GlobalSuppressions.cs<\/em> in your project. Suppressions in this file are scoped<br \/>\nglobally to the assembly or namespace, making it a good choice for<br \/>\nlarger-scale suppressions. For example:<\/p>\n<p>[assembly: System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage(<br \/>\n    &#8220;WinForms.Analyzers&#8221;,<br \/>\n    &#8220;WFO1000&#8221;,<br \/>\n    Justification = &#8220;This property is intentionally serialized.&#8221;)]<\/p>\n<p><strong>In Source via Attribute:<\/strong> This applies a suppression attribute directly to<br \/>\na specific code element, such as a class or property. It\u2019s a good option when<br \/>\nyou want the suppression to remain part of the source code documentation. For<br \/>\nexample:<\/p>\n<p>[System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage(<br \/>\n    &#8220;WinForms.Analyzers&#8221;,<br \/>\n    &#8220;WFO1000&#8221;,<br \/>\n    Justification = &#8220;This property is handled manually.&#8221;)]<br \/>\npublic string SomeProperty { get; set; }<\/p>\n<h3>Configuring Analyzer Severity in .editorconfig<\/h3>\n<p>To configure analyzer severity centrally for your project or solution, you can<br \/>\nuse an <em>.editorconfig<\/em> file. This file allows you to define rules for specific<br \/>\nanalyzers, including their severity levels, such as none, suggestion, warning,<br \/>\nor error. For example, to change the severity of the WFO1000 analyzer:<\/p>\n<p># Configure the severity for the WFO1000 analyzer<br \/>\ndotnet_diagnostic.WFO1000.severity = warning<\/p>\n<h3>Using .editorconfig Files for Directory-Specific Settings<\/h3>\n<p>One of the powerful features of .editorconfig files is their ability to control<br \/>\nsettings for different parts of a solution. By placing <em>.editorconfig<\/em> files in<br \/>\ndifferent directories within the solution, you can apply settings only to<br \/>\nspecific projects, folders, or files. The configuration applies hierarchically,<br \/>\nmeaning that settings in a child directory\u2019s .editorconfig file can override<br \/>\nthose in parent directories.<\/p>\n<p>For example:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Root-level .editorconfig:<\/strong> Place a general .editorconfig file at the<br \/>\nsolution root to define default settings that apply to the entire solution.<br \/>\n<strong>Project-specific .editorconfig:<\/strong> Place another .editorconfig file in the<br \/>\ndirectory of a specific project to apply different rules for that project while<br \/>\ninheriting settings from the root.<br \/>\n<strong>Folder-specific .editorconfig:<\/strong> If certain folders (e.g., test projects,<br \/>\nlegacy code) require unique settings, you can add an .editorconfig file to those<br \/>\nfolders to override the inherited configuration.<\/p>\n<p>\/solution-root<br \/>\n  \u251c\u2500\u2500 .editorconfig (applies to all projects)<br \/>\n  \u251c\u2500\u2500 ProjectA\/<br \/>\n  \u2502    \u251c\u2500\u2500 .editorconfig (overrides root settings for ProjectA)<br \/>\n  \u2502    \u2514\u2500\u2500 CodeFile.cs<br \/>\n  \u251c\u2500\u2500 ProjectB\/<br \/>\n  \u2502    \u251c\u2500\u2500 .editorconfig (specific to ProjectB)<br \/>\n  \u2502    \u2514\u2500\u2500 CodeFile.cs<br \/>\n  \u251c\u2500\u2500 Shared\/<br \/>\n  \u2502    \u251c\u2500\u2500 .editorconfig (applies to shared utilities)<br \/>\n  \u2502    \u2514\u2500\u2500 Utility.cs<\/p>\n<p>In this layout, the <em>.editorconfig<\/em> at the root applies general settings to all<br \/>\nfiles in the solution. The <em>.editorconfig<\/em> inside <em>ProjectA<\/em> applies additional or<br \/>\noverriding rules specific to <em>ProjectA<\/em>. Similarly, <em>ProjectB<\/em> and <em>Shared<br \/>\ndirectories<\/em> can define their unique settings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use Cases for Directory-Specific .editorconfig Files Test Projects:<\/strong><br \/>\nDisable or lower the severity of certain analyzers for test projects, where some<br \/>\nrules may not be applicable.<\/p>\n<p># In TestProject\/.editorconfig<br \/>\ndotnet_diagnostic.WFO1000.severity = none<br \/>\nLegacy Code: Suppress analyzers entirely or reduce their impact for legacy codebases to avoid unnecessary noise.<br \/>\n# In LegacyCode\/.editorconfig<br \/>\ndotnet_diagnostic.WFO1000.severity = suggestion<br \/>\nExperimental Features: Use more lenient settings for projects under active development while enforcing stricter rules for production-ready code.<\/p>\n<p>By strategically placing .editorconfig files, you gain fine-grained control over<br \/>\nthe behavior of analyzers and coding conventions, making it easier to manage<br \/>\nlarge solutions with diverse requirements. Remember, the goal of this analyzer<br \/>\nis to guide you toward more secure and maintainable code, but it\u2019s up to you to<br \/>\ndecide the best pace and priority for addressing these issues in your project.<\/p>\n<p>As you can see: An <em>.editorconfig<\/em> file or a thoughtfully put set of such files<br \/>\nprovides a centralized and consistent way to manage analyzer behavior across<br \/>\nyour project or team.<\/p>\n<p>For more details, refer to the <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/visualstudio\/ide\/editorconfig-code-style-settings-reference\">.editorconfig<br \/>\ndocumentation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>So, I have good ideas for WinForms Analyzers \u2013 can I contribute?<\/h2>\n<p>Absolutely!
