Rubberduck - RedundantOption

New This feature is currently only available in pre-release builds (or the xmldoc asset doesn’t yet exist on main!).

Inspection type: LanguageOpportunities

Default severity: Hint

Reasoning

Module options that are redundant can be safely removed. Disable this inspection if your convention is to explicitly specify them; a future inspection may be used to enforce consistently explicit module options

Quick-Fixes

The following quick-fixes are available for this inspection:

IgnoreOnce: Adds an '@Ignore annotation to ignore a specific inspection result. Applicable to all inspections whose results can be annotated in a module.
IgnoreInModule: Adds an '@IgnoreModule annotation to ignore a inspection results for a specific inspection inside a whole module. Applicable to all inspections whose results can be annotated in a module.
RemoveOptionBaseStatement: Removes 'Option Base 0' statement from a module, making it implicit (0 being the default implicit lower bound for implicitly-sized arrays).

Examples

Each example is a self-contained MCVE showing the feature in a single specific scenario.

Standard Module

Named Module1 by default, these are general-purpose standard procedural modules.

Class Module

Named Class1 by default, these modules define the default interface for an object of that type.

Predeclared Class

A class module with its VB_PredeclaredId attribute set to True (with or without a @PredeclaredId annotation).

Interface Module

Abstract interfaces are class modules (with or without an @Interface annotation) whose default interface is not a class type intended to be instantiated.

UserForm Module

A predeclared class with a design-time visual designer using the MSForms UI framework.

Document Module

Owned by the host application, these class modules belong to the host document and may handle various events fired by the host application.
