When a reference parameter (keyword ``++ref++``) is used, the passed argument type must exactly match the reference parameter type. This means that to be able to pass a derived type, it must be cast and assigned to a variable of the proper type. Use of generic methods eliminates that cumbersome down casting and should therefore be preferred.
This rule raises an issue when a method contains a ``++ref++`` parameter of type ``++System.Object++``.
== Noncompliant Code Example
----
using System;
namespace MyLibrary
{
public class Foo
{
public void Bar(ref object o1, ref object o2) // Noncompliant
{
}
}
}

== Compliant Solution
----
using System;
namespace MyLibrary
{
public class Foo
{
public void Bar<T>(ref T ref1, ref T ref2)
{
}
