Ordering Rules

 

Cause

An element within a C# code file is out of order within regard to access level, in relation to other elements in the code.

To comply with this rule, adjacent elements of the same type must be positioned in the following order by access level:

Complying with a standard ordering scheme based on access level can increase the readability and maintainability of the file and make it easier to identify the public interface that is being exposed from a class.
