I'm working on a C# solution and I'm using Gendarme integrated with Visual Studio in order to output to the Error List window when I compile.

I can see in the source-code and documentation for Gendarme that you can specify an ignore list to get Gendarme to ignore certain classes within an assembly but I can't for the life of me find any documentation online that shows an example of the format required for this file.

Can anyone help?

This is pretty simple and you can find an example in the self-test.ignore file. The basic ignore rule format is the following:

R: Gendarme.Rules.Category.Name
T: Excluded.Class.Name
N: Excluded.Namespace.Name
M: System.Void Excluded.Class::ExcludedMethodSignature(System.Int32)
A: ExcludedAssembly
... (other lines related to this rule)

R: Gendarme.Rules.Next.Rule
...

You might also wish to take a look at the ignore file parsing code.

This link describes the format and also has a helpful note: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/oneiric/man5/gendarme.5.html

An ignore-file can be generated automatically (using gd2i) from a XML defect list produced by Gendarme.
