Correct code is recognized as incorrect

Since visible is a field, it's value will persist between calls. For
example, the following code:

Form1 form1 = new Form1();
form1.Test();
form1.Test();

The first call to Test() might cause visible to become true and then, b
will no be initialized during the second call. In you sample code,
visible can never become true because DoUpdate() always returns false
but I think resharper can be excused for this oversite. I don't expect
resharper to analyze all the class methods & properties for ones that
can possibly change visible to true. I think this is a good call by
resharper.

namespace WindowsApplication4
{
public class Form1
{
private bool visible;
private bool filtered;

public void Test()
{
bool b;

visible = visible | DoUpdate(out b); // |!
filtered = filtered || b; // Resharper says this is incorrect, but this is uninitialized but this is initiliazed
}

private static bool DoUpdate(out bool b)
{
b = false;
return false;
}
}
}

Acctually, I take it back. There is a Resharper bug here. I missed the
fact that the operator being used is "|" rather that "||". while "||" is
a lazy "or", "|" is not and will evaluate both operands even if the
first is true. Here's a test program. In fact, if you change the | to
||, the compiler will complain that b is uninitialized.

using System;

public class Class {
public bool F1(bool x) {
bool b;

x = x | F2(out b);

// b will be true regardless of wether x is true or false
// which is proof it is always initialized but resharper
// still complains
//
Console.Out.WriteLine("b = {0}", b);

return x;
}

private static bool F2(out bool b) {
b = true;
return false;
}

public static void Main(string[] args) {
Class c = new Class();
c.F1(true);
c.F1(false);
}
}

Output:
b = True
b = True
