DoNotDeclareStaticMembersOnGenericTypesRule

Assembly: Gendarme.Rules.Design.Generic
Version: git

Description

This rule checks for generic types that contain static members. Such members requires the type argument to be specified when consumed, leading to harder to use or confusing API.

Examples

Bad example:

public class BadClass<T> {
    public static string Member () {
    }
}

Good example:

public class GoodClass<T> {
    public string Member () {
    }
}

Notes

  • This rule applies only to assemblies targeting .NET 2.0 and later.
