Simplify member access (IDE0002)

#Overview

This rule concerns use of simplified type member access in declarations and executable code, when possible. Unnecessary qualification can be removed to simplify code and improve readability.

#Options

This rule has no associated code-style options.

#Example

class C
{
    static void M1() { }

    static void M2()
    {
        // IDE0002: 'C.M1' can be simplified to 'M1'
        C.M1();

        // Fixed code
        M1();
    }
}

Public Class C
    Shared Sub M1()
    End Sub

    Shared Sub M2()
        ' IDE0002: 'C.M1' can be simplified to 'M1'
        C.M1()

        ' Fixed code
        M1()
    End Sub
End Class

#Suppress a warning

If you want to suppress only a single violation, add preprocessor directives to your source file to disable and then re-enable the rule.

#pragma warning disable IDE0002
// The code that's violating the rule is on this line.
#pragma warning restore IDE0002

To disable the rule for a file, folder, or project, set its severity to none in the configuration file.

[*.{cs,vb}]
dotnet_diagnostic.IDE0002.severity = none

To disable all of the code-style rules, set the severity for the category Style to none in the configuration file.

[*.{cs,vb}]
dotnet_analyzer_diagnostic.category-Style.severity = none
