AL0035 - Use GetFullyQualifiedName/GetMetadataName()

Replace ToDisplayString() with semantic name extensions

Source: AL0035UseToDisplayStringExtensionsAnalyzer.cs

Description

Using ToDisplayString() with format options is verbose. ANcpLua.Roslyn.Utilities provides clearer alternatives for common symbol name formats.

Bad Code

using Microsoft.CodeAnalysis;

// Verbose display format
var fqn = symbol.ToDisplayString(SymbolDisplayFormat.FullyQualifiedFormat);
var metadata = symbol.ToDisplayString(
    new SymbolDisplayFormat(typeQualificationStyle: ...));

Good Code

using ANcpLua.Roslyn.Utilities;

// Clear intent
var fqn = symbol.GetFullyQualifiedName();
var metadata = symbol.GetMetadataName();

Notes

• GetFullyQualifiedName() - returns global::Namespace.Type format
• GetMetadataName() - returns assembly metadata name format
• Both are common operations in Roslyn analyzer development
