Question to synthesized GeneratedNames for yield statement

[daveMueller]

Hi,

I would need some clarification on how the synthesized names are generated for yield statements. We have a bug in our
coverage tool coverlet-coverage/coverlet#1484 because of this.

To be more precise, when having a simple class like the following

public class PolicyNames
{
    public static IEnumerable<string> All()
    {
        yield return "1";
    }
}

the compiler is adding a nested type called <All>d__0

.class nested private auto ansi sealed beforefieldinit '<All>d__0'

So now when I add a simple field like the following

public class PolicyNames
{
    private string Read;

    public static IEnumerable<string> All()
    {
        yield return "1";
    }
}

the compiler is adding nested type called <All>d__1

.class nested private auto ansi sealed beforefieldinit '<All>d__1'

Our algorithem currently only counts methods for the ordinal number and I guess this is the problem. What exactly (fields, properties, ...) do I need to consider when computing this generated name?

Sorry, but the generation of closures is rather complicated and is an implementation detail (subject to change). Someone would have to dig into the compiler code, so we're unlikely to be able to help with this. I'll move the issue to a discussion
