Property Value
Rule ID IDE0052
Title Remove unread private member
Category CodeQuality
Subcategory Unnecessary code rules (expression-level preferences)

Overview

This rule flags private fields and properties that have one or more write references but no read references. In this scenario, some parts of the code can be refactored or removed to fix maintainability, performance, or functional issues.

Options

This rule has no associated code-style options.

Example

// Code with violations
class C
{
    // IDE0052: Remove unread private members
    private readonly int _field1;
    private int _field2;
    private int Property { get; set; }

    public C()
    {
        _field1 = 0;
    }

    public void SetMethod()
    {
        _field2 = 0;
        Property = 0;
    }
}

// Fixed code
class C
{
    public C()
    {
    }

    public void SetMethod()
    {
    }
}
