MemoryCache.Analyzers

NuGet Version Main build

MemoryCache.Analyzers is a Roslyn analyzer that identifies creation of System.Runtime.Caching.MemoryCache in modern .NET projects. Microsoft's ASP.NET Core caching guidance recommends Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Memory over that compatibility API.

Example

SRC1000 reports the MemoryCache object creation in this C# code:

using System;
using System.Runtime.Caching;

MemoryCache cache = new("orders"); // SRC1000
cache.Set("order:42", "ready", DateTimeOffset.UtcNow.AddMinutes(5));

Use Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Memory instead:

using System;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Memory;

using MemoryCache cache = new(new MemoryCacheOptions());
cache.Set("order:42", "ready", TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5));

Install

Install the package in each project to analyze:

dotnet add package MemoryCache.Analyzers

Or add a package reference:

<PackageReference Include="MemoryCache.Analyzers"
                  Version="0.1.0"
                  PrivateAssets="all" />

Supported targets

  • Language: C#
  • Analyzed applications: .NET Standard 2.0, .NET Core, and .NET 5 or later
  • Excluded applications: .NET Framework
  • Analyzer target framework: netstandard2.0

SRC1000 reports only object creation for System.Runtime.Caching.MemoryCache or a type derived from it. Calls such as Get and Set, other member access, and MemoryCache.Default do not produce diagnostics.

Rules

ID Category Severity Code fix Title
SRC1000 Compatibility Warning No Avoid System.Runtime.Caching.MemoryCache in .NET Core+

Configure severity

Use .editorconfig to change the severity of SRC1000:
