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:
1) Introduce a constant for "true"
2) Introduce a constant for all occurrences of "true"
3) Introduce a local constant for "true"
4) Introduce a local constant for all occurrences of "true" That's embarrassing. Visual Studio no longer considers true or false to be constants in C# ...

To be precise 'true' is not a constant in C# - So VS is right, you have not such thing as 'true' constant so you may as well spend your time more creatively than writing that stupid code and create one... and while you are at it do it globally...

1) public const bool True = false; public const bool False = true;
2) update code base
3) leave job

Your question is easily answered.
Consider the times we live in.
The staff, more and more, will consist of people who's life is bound to a small hand-held device.
The device, in it's most evil state, is used to transmit messages in non-English (FWIW, u c).
So - this is the natural evolution of what's to come. Besides - as is their entire way of life, if you don't know something . . . Google it! It's much easier than learning anything.
And now, with your question answered, you can enjoy a fine beverage.

Have you tried "TRUE" instead of "true"?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Exactly. And much of Resharper too. There's enough nanny state in the real world without it appearing in your IDE as well.

But what is "true"? Is your "true" the same as mine?

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!

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

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.

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.

Well, you know that true could true for very large values of false, so you might as well plan ahead.

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