CA1507: Use nameof in place of string

Property Value
Rule ID CA1507
Title Use nameof in place of string
Category Maintainability
Fix is breaking or non-breaking Non-breaking
Enabled by default in .NET 8 As suggestion

Cause

A string literal or constant that matches the name of a parameter of the containing method or the name of a property of the containing type is used as an argument to a method.

Rule description

Rule CA1507 flags the use of a string literal as an argument to a method or constructor where a nameof (NameOf in Visual Basic) expression would add maintainability. The rule fires if all of the following conditions are met:

  • The argument is a string literal or constant.

  • The argument corresponds to a string-typed parameter of the method or the constructor that's being invoked (that is, there is no conversion involved at the call site).

  • Either:

    • The declared name of the parameter is paramName and the constant value of the string literal matches the name of a parameter of the method, lambda, or local function within which the method or constructor is being invoked.

    • The declared name of the parameter is propertyName and the constant value of the string literal matches the name of a property of the type within which the method or constructor is being invoked.

Rule CA1507 improves code maintainability in cases where the parameter may be renamed in the future, but the string literal is mistakenly not renamed. By using nameof, the symbol will be renamed when the parameter is renamed through a refactoring operation. In addition, any spelling mistakes in the name of the parameter are caught by the compiler.

How to fix violations

To fix a violation, replace the string literal with a nameof (NameOf in Visual Basic) expression. For example, the following two code snippets show a violation of the rule and how to fix it:

public Book(string title)
{
    // Violates rule CA1507
    Title = title ?? throw new ArgumentNullException("title", "All books must have a title.");
}
public Book(string title)
{
    // Resolves rule CA1507 violation
    Title = title ?? throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(title), "All books must have a title.");
}

Tip

A code fix is available for this rule in Visual Studio. To use it, position the cursor on the string literal and press Ctrl+. (period). Choose Use nameof to express symbol names from the list of options that's presented.

When to suppress warnings

It's safe to suppress a violation of this rule if you're not concerned about the maintainability of your code.

Suppress a warning

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

#pragma warning disable CA1507
// The code that's violating the rule is on this line.
#pragma warning restore CA1507

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

[*.{cs,vb}]
dotnet_diagnostic.CA1507.severity = none
