AttributeStringLiteralsShouldParseCorrectlyRule

Assembly: Gendarme.Rules.Correctness
Version: git

Description

As attributes are used at compile time, only constants can be passed to constructors. This can lead to runtime errors for things like malformed URI strings. This rule checks attributes with the following types, represented as a string, and validates the string value:

  • Version
  • Guid
  • Uri

Examples

Bad example:

[assembly: AssemblyFileVersion ("fooo")]

Good example:

[assembly: AssemblyFileVersion ("0.0.1.*")]

Notes

  • This rule is available since Gendarme 2.2
