Abstract member cannot declare a body

• Jun 07, 2019

CodeRush Classic shows the Abstract member cannot declare a body code issue if an abstract member has a body.

Fix

Remove the body of the abstract member or remove the abstract modifier.

Purpose

Highlights the abstract member declarations, which would cause the ‘Member name’ cannot declare a body because it is marked abstract compilation error.

Example

C#

public abstract double │GetArea()
{
    return Width*Height;
}

Fix:

C#

public abstract double GetArea();

or

C#

public double GetArea()
{
    return Width*Height;
}
