Who wrote the "suggestions" part of VS 2019?

They're just trying to help Javascript programmers integrate into the .NET community. Coming from "falsey" and "truthy" to hard false and true can be quite traumatic! :laugh:

I remember one FORTRAN programmer that didn't trust 'em. He used to write code like this:
if (a == b)
...
else if (a != b)

And how did they escape from kindergarten? This time, my code looks like this:
XmlDocument xd = new XmlDocument(); xd.Load(@"D:\\Test Data\\author.xml"); xd.PreserveWhitespace = true;And the final line has a "screwdriver" to show a "fix this suggestion" is available. And there are four options:
- Introduce a constant for "true"
- Introduce a constant for all occurrences of "true"
- Introduce a local constant for "true"
- Introduce a local constant for all occurrences of "true"
That's embarrassing. Visual Studio no longer considers
trueorfalseto be constants in C# ... :-OSent from my Amstrad PC 1640 Never throw anything away, Griff Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay... AntiTwitter: @DalekDave is now a follower!
Yeah, well.. It's up to you what you're going to use a screwdriver for. If you decide to clean your windows with it it is your own fault. If they'd know that their suggestion is right it would become a compiler error anyways.
I only have a signature in order to let @DalekDave follow my posts.

As millennials populate overseer positions with even younger ones under them, critical and "non critical" system failures will increasingly become more and more, the norm. like elevators and medical care. We're done for.

Googled and got this : true and false are lowercase reserved keywords. So yeah, 'true' is not a constant. The suggestions aren't wrong.

Wait! there is more!
