IsUsedRecently Method (ExtensionMethodsCQLinqCompare)

Returns true if this object is in a third-party assembly (or is a third-party assembly itself), and if it is used by the newer version of the code base, but not by the older version. This method can only be called in a ICQLinqExecutionContext, otherwise the method NDepend.CodeModel.ICompareContext.NDepend.CodeModel.ICompareContext.IsUsedRecently must be called instead.

Syntax

[Extension()]
public static bool IsUsedRecently( 
   ICodeElement codeElement
)

codeElement: This NDepend.CodeModel.ICodeElement object. A NDepend.CodeModel.ICodeElement object can be a NDepend.CodeModel.IAssembly, NDepend.CodeModel.INamespace, NDepend.CodeModel.IType, NDepend.CodeModel.IMethod or NDepend.CodeModel.IField object.

Exceptions

Exception	Description
System.NotImplementedException	This extension method cannot be called from a program consuming NDepend.API. In such context, the method NDepend.CodeModel.ICompareContext.NDepend.CodeModel.ICompareContext.IsUsedRecently must be called instead.

Remarks

In the context of a CQLinq compiled query, this method has a constant time complexity.
