Translating C/C++ and Xamarin projects

You must translate C/C++ and Xamarin projects either from a Developer Command Prompt for Visual Studio or from the Fortify Extension for Visual Studio.

For Xamarin projects, there is no need to use a custom rule for the Xamarin.Android API if a rule for the corresponding native Android API exists in the Fortify Secure Coding Rulepacks. Doing so can cause duplicate issues to be reported.
