2008-07-23  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

	* AvoidUnusedPrivateFieldsRule.cs: Fix [Problem] and [Solution]
	to match the rule (wrong copy-paste). Don't process literals (e.g. 
	const) since their value is copied into IL and this results in many
	false positives (handled or not).
	* Makefile.am: Compile without optimization since newer gmcs is
	now converting "" into String.Empty automagically (making our test 
	cases fails).

2008-07-13  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

	* AvoidLargeNumberOfLocalVariablesRule.cs: Rule to warn if a method
	has a very large of local variables - since it's likely the JIT won't be

	* Makefile.am: add rule and tests to the build.

2008-06-11  Jb Evain  <jbevain@novell.com>

	* AvoidUninstantiatedInternalClassesRule.cs: when facing
	an internal sealed class, with a single private ctor, the
	rule does not apply, it's basically a static class.

2008-06-04  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

	* ConsiderCustomAccessorsForNonVisibleEventsRule.cs: New. Rule 
	that checks type non-visible events and report them if they are

	* AvoidLargeStructureRule.cs: Remove unused GetPackSize method.
	Use IsPrimitive definition (inside a collection, the switch case

2008-04-27  Andres G. Aragoneses  <aaragoneses@novell.com>

	* Gendarme.Rules.Performance.mdp: updated.

2008-04-27  Jb Evain  <jbevain@novell.com>

	method by a call to the rock of the same name.

2008-04-27  Jb Evain  <jbevain@novell.com>

	* AvoidUnusedParametersRule.cs: refactoring work.

2008-04-26  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

	and use Runner.CurrentRuleResult instead. Remove details as it
	does not provide more information (than the [Solution] already

2008-04-20  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

	* AvoidUncalledPrivateCodeTest.cs: Use the token in the cache

2008-04-05  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

	* MathMinMaxCandidateRule.cs: New. Rule that checks for code
	patterns that should be replaced by Math.Min or Math.Max since the

	* Makefile.am: Add rule and tests to the build.

2008-03-16  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

	* AvoidUnusedParametersRule.cs: Don't report defects on methods
	that contains parameter inheriting from EventArgs. GUI apps use
	them a lot and, while not real "false positive", the method 
	signature is outside the developer's control so it cannot be 
	fixed (signature-wise) and rarely denotes a real problem. Fix
	bug #350288

2008-03-05  Sebastien Pouliot  <sebastien@ximian.com>

	* AvoidUnneededCallsOnStringRule.cs: Source file renamed from
