TypeName | WhileDoFooterMustNotBePrecededByBlankLine |
CheckId | SA1511 |
Category | Layout Rules |
Cause
The while footer at the bottom of a do-while statement is separated from the statement by a blank line.
Rule Description
To improve the readability of the code, StyleCop requires blank lines in certain situations, and prohibits blank lines in other situations. This results in a consistent visual pattern across the code, which can improve recognition and readability of unfamiliar code.
A violation of this rule occurs when the while keyword at the bottom of a do-while statement is separated from the main part of the statement by one or more blank lines. For example:
do
{
Console.WriteLine("Loop forever");
}
while (true);
How to Fix Violations
To fix a violation of this rule, remove any blank lines before the while keyword.
