If I analyse a project, why is it a problem that I have unused method/event parameters?
That’s not a Problem, this is only a info. You can turn off this warnings at the ‘Project->Analysis Warnings’ Dialog.
Ok thanks. Just out of interest, why do some people use #Pragma Unused VariableName then?
So when they deliberately ignore using a parameter they no longer get this particular warning
Some try to get warnings down to 0
An unused method or event parameter might mean that you forgot to do something with that parameter; on the other hand you might be ignoring the parameter on purpose. If I know that a parameter is supposed to be ignored, I tend to use the #pragma unused directive to tell the compiler so that the only warnings I see are legitimate concerns.
