S1109 — A close curly brace should be located at the beginning of a line

Language: C#  |  Type: CODE_SMELL  |  Severity: Minor

Tags: convention

Why is this an issue?

Shared coding conventions make it possible for a team to efficiently collaborate. This rule makes it mandatory to place a close curly brace at the beginning of a line.

Noncompliant code example

if(condition)
{
  doSomething();}

Compliant solution

if(condition)
{
  doSomething();
}

Exceptions

When blocks are inlined (open and close curly braces on the same line), no issue is triggered.

if(condition) {doSomething();}
