I'm doing code analysis with Roslyn in order to validate that even though I have the following signature
public void MyMethod(object anObject, MyCustomObject customObject);
I only want to receive, as parameters, a string (1st) and a child from MyCustomObject (2nd). I have no power over the signature, it cannot be changed.
Here's what I did to evaluate my method (Here's a snippet)
public void OnMethodInvocation(SyntaxNodeAnalysisContext context)
{
var invocation= context.Node as InvocationExpressionSyntax;
var symbol = context.SemanticModel.GetSymbolInfo(invocation).Symbol as IMethodSymbol;
if (symbol?.Name.ToString()== "MyMethod")
{
var parameterList = invocation.Parameters;
}
As of now, I can manipulate my IParameterSymbol objects from the property Parameters (symbol.Parameters). What I don't get is the following : I've gone through my result IEnumerable containing both my parameters, but because of the method signature, it expects to receive an object and a MyCustomObject instances. I'm not in a position (at the moment) to be certain that the first parameter is indeed an object and not a string (merely an example, could have been anything else) and that when I'm expecting a child of MyCustomObject, if I give it a null, I want to know it's a null parameter.
I'll be grateful to anyone who can un-stuck me from this sticky situation !
