Code inspection: Local function hides method
This inspection reports a local function that has the same name as a method and hides it in the current scope. That can make the code harder to read because calls may resolve to the local function when the containing type method was intended.
Example
class C
{
void Log()
{
}
void M()
{
void Log()
{
}
Log();
}
}
class C
{
void Log()
{
}
void M()
{
void LogLocal()
{
}
LogLocal();
}
}
Quick-fix
The quick-fix starts a rename so the local function no longer hides the method.
