ID: csharp-best-practices/redundant-modifiers

Language: C#

Severity: Notice

Category: Best Practices

When sealed is used in the class definition, methods and attributes do not need to define or use the sealed modifier.

public sealed class MyClass {

    public sealed void myMethod() {
        
    }
    sealed void myMethod() {
        
    }
}

class MyClass {
    public sealed myMethod()
    {
        if (foo) {
            throw new MyException();
        }
        
    }
}
