Warns when a user function's return value is discarded at all its call sites.
Inspection type: CodeQualityIssues
Default severity: Warning
A 'Function' procedure normally means its return value to be captured and consumed by the calling code. It's possible that not all call sites need the return value, but if the value is systematically discarded then this means the function is side-effecting, and thus should probably be a 'Sub' procedure instead
The following quick-fixes are available for this inspection:
Each example is a self-contained MCVE showing the feature in a single specific scenario.
Module1
by default, these are general-purpose standard procedural modules.Class1
by default, these modules define the default interface for an object of that type.VB_PredeclaredId
attribute set to True
(with or without a @PredeclaredId
annotation).@Interface
annotation) whose default interface is not a class type intended to be instantiated.
