RecordGenerator

Cause

The class marked with [Record] is not sealed and equality generation is enabled.

Reason for rule

Generated equality implementation for classes is not inheritance-friendly, and there’d be no guarantee it’s in any shape or form correct in derived classes. Thus, it can only be generated for sealed classes.

How to fix violations

To fix a violation of this rule, either:

• add sealed modifier to offending types (there is a provided codefix);
• disable equality generation for this type: [Record(Features.Default & ~Features.Equality)].

Examples

Violates

using Amadevus.RecordGenerator;

[Record(Features.Equality)]
partial class DataClass
{
    public string Name { get; }
}

Does not violate

using Amadevus.RecordGenerator;

[Record(Features.Equality)]
sealed partial class DataClass
{
    public string Name { get; }
}


[Record(Features.Default & ~Features.Equality)]
partial class BaseDataClass
{
    public string Name { get; }
}
