non_ type_ as_ type_ argument
The name '{0}' isn't a type, so it can't be used as a type argument.
Description
#The analyzer produces this diagnostic when an identifier that isn't a type is used as a type argument.
Example
#
The following code produces this diagnostic because
x
is a variable, not
a type:
var x = 0;
List<x> xList = [];
Common fixes
#Change the type argument to be a type:
var x = 0;
List<int> xList = [];
