How can I tag code as generated

Is it any best practice to tag .net generated code?

What I want to achieve is following:

• Debugger step by default not inside the property or method
• Metrics are not calulated for those classes/members

From stackoverflow

• Well, for the first - attributes ([DebuggerStepThrough] being the most important for your question); some useful ones here:

  [DebuggerStepThrough, DebuggerHidden, DebuggerNonUserCode]
  [CompilerGenerated] // arguably untrue...
  

  Not sure about the second question.

  James Fleming : I'm with mark on this - If you don't like the how the code metrics are being evaluated on your generated code maybe you need to adjust your templates?

• You might consider using Postsharp to manipulate the code once it is compiled.
