Mathematical operation on nullable
We are migrating some old code c# and most of double are becoming double? But the developper was a javascript programmer and there is a major difference between c# and javascript : 5 + null => 5 in JS, null in .net !
Thus we add a lot (a very lot of !) ?? 0 for each operation but we are not sure we do not forget some (and sure we forget some because we have some bugs and we need to correct), i see a lot of option in resharper, but i found nothing, there is an option to detect +/- ... with nullable type ?

Hello Fabrice, thank you for your message. You can create custom patterns that will be used to find the needed structures. Custom patterns can be found here: ReSharper | Options | Code Inspection | Custom Patterns.
For example, you can create patterns for:
double? + double?
double? + double
double + double?
And the same for other operators and types.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
Very thanks to you, with your suggestions, we found other bugs !
It creates a lot of rules, we add a rules with * too (it seems that + works with -, * with /).
We need to create a rule for +=, -=n .... with permutation !
Fabrice, happy to hear it helped! Could you please describe the task with +=, -= in more detail? Thank you!
But for this project, we finally "disable" compound statement, less rules to create ! (because there is *=, /= too)
But we found other problem like :
Unable to find this, event if we change double to object in the rule.
Fabrice, try using something like this? Can it work for you?
It is too general expression !
I understand, but unfortunately, based on your example, I can not offer anything else yet. The fact is that in the previous screenshot "a" is used both as an identifier and as an expression. Therefore, when creating a custom pattern, such a scenario cannot be implemented, since for "a" we can specify only one "meaning".
