07/27/2023

This article describes two related rules, IDE0078 and IDE0260.

Property	Value
Rule ID	IDE0078
Title	Use pattern matching
Category	Style
Subcategory	Language rules (pattern matching preferences)
Applicable languages	C# 9.0+
Options	`csharp_style_prefer_pattern_matching`

Property	Value
Rule ID	IDE0260
Title	Use pattern matching
Category	Style
Subcategory	Language rules (pattern matching preferences)
Applicable languages	C#
Options	`csharp_style_pattern_matching_over_as_with_null_check`

Overview

This style rule concerns the use of C# pattern matching constructs.

IDE0260 specifically flags the use of an as expression followed by a member read through the null-conditional operator. This rule is similar to IDE0019, which flags the use of an as expression followed by a null check.

Options

Options specify the behavior that you want the rule to enforce. For information about configuring options, see Option format.

csharp_style_prefer_pattern_matching (IDE0078)

Property	Value	Description
Option name	csharp_style_prefer_pattern_matching
Option values	`true`	Prefer to use pattern matching constructs, when possible
	`false`	Prefer not to use pattern matching constructs.
Default option value	`true`

csharp_style_pattern_matching_over_as_with_null_check (IDE0260)

This option also configures rule IDE0019.

Property	Value	Description
Option name	csharp_style_pattern_matching_over_as_with_null_check
Option values	`true`	Prefer pattern matching over `as` expression with null-conditional member access.
	`false`	Disables the rule.
Default option value	`true`

Examples

IDE0078

// csharp_style_prefer_pattern_matching = true
var x = i is default(int) or > (default(int));
var y = o is not C c;

// csharp_style_prefer_pattern_matching = false
var x = i == default || i > default(int);
var y = !(o is C c);

IDE0260

// Code with violations.
object? o = null;
if ((o as string)?.Length == 0)
{
}

// Fixed code (csharp_style_pattern_matching_over_as_with_null_check = true).
object? o = null;
if (o is string { Length: 0 })
{
}

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 IDE0078 // or IDE0260
// The code that's violating the rule is on this line.
#pragma warning restore IDE0078 // or IDE0260

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

ini

[*.{cs,vb}]
dotnet_diagnostic.IDE0078.severity = none
dotnet_diagnostic.IDE0260.severity = none

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

ini

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