list of #pragma warning disable codes and what they mean

Question

The syntax for disabling warnings is as follows:

#pragma warning disable 414, 3021

Or, expressed more generally:

#pragma warning disable [CSV list of numeric codes]

Is there a list of these numeric codes and the description of the warning that they're suppressing? Much to my chagrin, I can't seem to locate it via Google.

Answer 1

Look down the list of C# compiler errors and warnings to find the individual warning numbers.

Answer 2

You shouldn't need a list. The compiler will tell you. If you get a compiler error that says "warning CS0168", then add 168 to the list (or, better yet, fix the code).

Answer 3

MSDN has a list of warning codes. Unfortunately, you have to click each link to view what the code actually means.

Answer 4

FYI -

If you're using Visual Studio 2008, you can get the code directly from the Error List by right-clicking the error, and selecting Show Error Help from the context menu. The Help window should pop up, and show you everything you ever wanted to know about the error a la the MSDN website.

Could save you a bit of time.

Answer 5

I have been working for hours and hours on a simple program and I keep getting these errors, and all anyone can say is right click the error and select "show error help"? Don't you think I thought of that before searching on the web? Nobody wants to explain it in layman's terms for someone who is trying to learn this stuff?
