== Why is this an issue?
|
|
|
|
Having all branches of a `Select Case` or `If` chain with the same implementation indicates a problem.
|
|
|
|
In the following code:
|
|
|
|
[source,vbnet]
|
|
----
|
|
Dim b As Integer = If(a > 12, 4, 4) // Noncompliant
|
|
|
|
If b = 0 Then // Noncompliant
|
|
DoTheThing()
|
|
Else
|
|
DoTheThing()
|
|
End If
|
|
|
|
Select Case i // Noncompliant
|
|
Case 1
|
|
DoSomething()
|
|
Case 2
|
|
DoSomething()
|
|
Case 3
|
|
DoSomething()
|
|
Case Else
|
|
DoSomething()
|
|
End Select
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
Either there is a copy-paste error that needs fixing or an unnecessary `Select Case` or `If` chain that needs removing.
|
|
|
|
=== Exceptions
|
|
|
|
This rule does not apply to `If` chains without `Else`, nor to `Select Case` without a `Case Else` clause.
|
|
|
|
|
|
[source,vbnet]
|
|
----
|
|
If b = 0 Then ' No issue, this could have been done on purpose to make the code more readable
|
|
DoTheThing()
|
|
ElseIf
|
|
DoTheThing()
|
|
End If
|
