Extended Description
This code analyzer detects the usage of the standard Console
class found in the System
namespace. However, this class is a sealed class, so it's rendered inextensible, causing you to have to make its abstraction class to wrap its functions if you want to add extra code, like checking for VT sequences.
Fortunately, Terminaux has a console wrapper, ConsoleWrapper
, that makes use of the current local console driver that contains the necessary checks, like checking the console for its fullness (positioning and any other functions other than plain writing). It's connected to the local console driver that Nitrocid KS manages.
So, if you want to use the Console
class, you must replace these calls with ConsoleWrapper
to take advantage of the local console drivers.
Furthermore, some of the wrapper functions are used by the much powerful console writers, like TextWriterColor.Write()
, that include sanity checks before actually doing the job.
