SA1119 Suggests to eliminate meaningful parentheses in pattern

[wilhelmzapiain]

The following code:

    !(item is null) && SomePredicate(item.Property)

triggers SA1119 with the proposed change:

    !item is null && SomePredicate(item.Property)

which is has the wrong semantics.

SA1119 should not trigger in this case.

❓ What version of StyleCop Analyzers are you using? I would expect this to be fixed along with #2372 for release 1.1.0-beta004.

[wilhelmzapiain]

Updating to release 1.1.0-beta004 removes StyleCop from the available analyzers. How do I set it up?

[sharwell]

What version of Visual Studio are you using? 1.1.x require Visual Studio 2015 Update 2 (or anything newer).

Thanks. Can you try this?

1. Uninstall StyleCop Analyzers
2. Save everything and close Visual Studio
3. Open Visual Studio again, install StyleCop Analyzers 1.1.0-beta004
4. Save everything and restart Visual Studio again

See if we can't "kick it back into working order"

Weird heinsenbug. Had already tried, but know it worked.
All is in working order. Thank you very much.
