Code Analyzer for C#

There is a newer version: 10.2.0.105762

Why is this an issue?
Having a field in a child class with a name that differs from a parent class' field only by capitalization is sure to cause confusion. Such child
class fields should be renamed.
Noncompliant code example
public class Fruit
{
  protected string plantingSeason;
  //...
}

public class Raspberry : Fruit
{
  protected string plantingseason;  // Noncompliant
  // ...
}

Compliant solution
public class Fruit
{
  protected string plantingSeason;
  //...
}

public class Raspberry : Fruit
{
  protected string whenToPlant;
  // ...
}

Or
public class Fruit
{
  protected string plantingSeason;
  //...
}

public class Raspberry : Fruit
{
  // field removed; parent field will be used instead
  // ...
}

Exceptions
This rule ignores same-name fields that are static in both the parent and child classes. It also ignores private parent
class fields, but in all other such cases, the child class field should be renamed.
