I tried to create a DependancyProperty like so: public static DependencyProperty suppliedMessage = DependencyProperty.Register("suppliedMessage", typeof(string), typeof(SupplyMessage)); But I kept getting the error: Could not create activity of type 'Ex01.SupplyMessage'. System.ArgumentException: Type 'Ex01.SupplyMessage' does not define dependency property with name 'suppliedMessageProperty' So after a puzzling few minutes checking my code for errors I changed my variable to suppliedMessageProperty: public ...Show All

  Is it possible to exclude whole files from code analysis My scenario is where I have a web reference that generates a web service proxy class. This reference will get updated periodically so I don't want to supress 500 messages every time I update it. Is it possible to exclude a whole file I still want the rest of the files in the project to be analyzed.
