Trace.Write and Trace.WriteLine methods are writing to the underlying
output stream directly, bypassing the trace formatting and filtering performed by TraceListener.TraceEvent implementations. It is
preferred to use Trace.TraceError, Trace.TraceWarning and Trace.TraceInformation methods instead because they
call the TraceEvent method which filters the
trace output according to the TraceEventType (Error,
Warning or Information) and enhance the output with additional information.
try
{
var message = RetrieveMessage();
Trace.Write($"Message received: {message}"); // Noncompliant
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Trace.WriteLine(ex); // Noncompliant
}
try
{
var message = RetrieveMessage();
Trace.TraceInformation($"Message received: {message}");
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Trace.TraceError(ex);
}
