Can we run SCI only on the code changes based on version management?

Former Member — Tue, 03 May 2011 10:45:00 GMT

We have a requirement to enhance Code Inspector to run the checks only on changed code (code changes between two versions). Please suggest if it is possible to enhance SCI so that it runs only on the changed code instead of complete program.

Thanks & Regards,

I bet not, because the changes are not stored explicitely, they only become visible when comparing two versions of the complete code. Also, even unchanged code might become invalid for example if you remove a field declaration elsewhere, so you better always check the whole enchilada.

What would be the rationale behind this anyway?
