Category Usage Fix is breaking or non-breaking Non-breaking Enabled by default in .NET 9 No Cause
The result of a call to String.Compare is compared to zero.
Rule descriptionString.Compare is designed to produce a total-order comparison that can be used for sorting. If you only care whether the strings are equal, it is both clearer and likely faster to use an equivalent overload of String.Equals.
How to fix violationsTo fix violations of this rule, replace the expression comparing the result of String.Compare with a call to String.Equals.
When to suppress warningsIt is safe to suppress warnings from this rule.
Suppress a warningIf you just want to suppress a single violation, add preprocessor directives to your source file to disable and then re-enable the rule.
#pragma warning disable CA2251
// The code that's violating the rule is on this line.
#pragma warning restore CA2251
To disable the rule for a file, folder, or project, set its severity to none
in the configuration file.
[*.{cs,vb}]
dotnet_diagnostic.CA2251.severity = none
