Windows Application Verifier - Rah Roh! .NET doesn't qualify?

Several people are raving about the Windows Application Verifier.

Um… problem.

It doesn’t appear that the .NET Framework follows the rules specified by the Windows Application Verifier 2.50.

I might be using it wrong, so if I am, please let me know.

  1. Create a new Windows Form project (VB.NET) using VS.NET 2K3.
  2. Build it.
  3. Add it to Application Verifier 2.50.
  4. Check everything except Stacks.

Select project from the list and run it.

You will see several “errors” that are happening at the Framework level - also, keep in mind, that we haven’t actually added any code to the project, it’s a “blank” project.

Is this to be expected?
