Fix: Support compound assignments in "Use null propagation" analyzer #81328
Conversation
Modified Unwrap method to detect and handle compound assignments (+=, -=, etc.) by checking if the first child node is on the left side of a compound assignment. Added three tests for compound assignment scenarios with events and numeric values. Co-authored-by: CyrusNajmabadi <4564579+CyrusNajmabadi@users.noreply.github.com>
Compound assignments with null conditional (?.) are only supported in C# 14+. Added language version check to ensure the diagnostic is only offered when supported. Added test to verify diagnostic is not offered for C# 13. Co-authored-by: CyrusNajmabadi <4564579+CyrusNajmabadi@users.noreply.github.com>

@copilot merge with above if statement. It should be possible to use a syntaxfacts helper like IsAnyAssignment

Merged the checks using IsLeftSideOfAnyAssignment in commit bc99892. This consolidated both simple and compound assignment checks into a single if statement.

I love how copilot found this typo and... made it worse 😂
Summary: Add support for compound assignments in "Use null propagation" analyzer
This PR fixes the issue where the "Use null propagation" code fix was not being offered for compound assignments (like
+=,-=,*=, etc.) in if statements.Problem
The analyzer would offer the diagnostic for simple assignments:
But not for compound assignments:
Solution
Modified the
Unwrapmethod inAbstractUseNullPropagationDiagnosticAnalyzer.csto detect compound assignments usingIsLeftSideOfAnyAssignmenthelper which handles both simple and compound assignments in a unified way.Changes Made
