AvoidUnusedParametersRule

Assembly: Gendarme.Rules.Performance
Version: 2.10

Description

This rule is used to ensure that all parameters in a method signature are being used. The rule wont report a defect against the following:

• Methods that are referenced by a delegate;
• Methods used as event handlers;
• Abstract methods;
• Virtual or overriden methods;
• External methods (e.g. p/invokes)

Examples

Bad example:

public void MethodWithUnusedParameters (IEnumerable enumerable, int x)
{
    foreach (object item in enumerable) {
        Console.WriteLine (item);
    }
}

Good example:

public void MethodWithUsedParameters (IEnumerable enumerable)
{
    foreach (object item in enumerable) {
        Console.WriteLine (item);
    }
}
