AvoidLargeNumberOfLocalVariablesRule Class

This rule warns when the number of local variables exceed a maximum value (default is 64). Having a large amount of local variables makes it hard to generate code that performs well and, likely, makes the code harder to understand.

Syntax

public class AvoidLargeNumberOfLocalVariablesRule : Gendarme.Framework.Rule, Gendarme.Framework.IMethodRule
