CS.ASSIGN.SELF
A language entity is assigned to itself.
Vulnerability and risk
Self assignment does not have any effect. Even if this is not an error on its own, it may indicate a larger error in the code.
Example 1
Copy
class Foo {
struct Boo {
public int x;
public Boo(int _x) {
x = _x;
}
}
void Assigner() {
decimal d = 0;
d = d; // defect
Boo boo1 = new Boo(1),
boo2 = new Boo(2);
boo1.x = boo2.x; // OK
boo2.x = boo2.x; // defect
}
}
