unnecessary_ underscores
Unnecessary use of multiple underscores.
Description
#
The analyzer produces this diagnostic when an unused variable is named
with multiple underscores (for example
__
). A single
_
wildcard variable
can be used instead.
Example
#The following code produces this diagnostic because the __
parameter is unused:
void function(int __) { }
Common fixes
#Replace the name with a single underscore:
void function(int _) { }
