Code Inspection: Redundant empty switch section

tip

You can suppress this inspection to ignore specific issues, change its severity level to make the issues less or more noticeable, or disable it altogether.

In C#, you do not have to include the default section in switch statements. If no case sections were executed, and there is no default section specified, control is transferred outside a switch statement.

JetBrains Rider considers the empty default branch redundant and suggests removing it to improve the code readability.

switch (x)
{
    case 1:
      Console.WriteLine(x);
      break;
    /*...*/
    default:
      break;
}

switch (x)
{
    case 1:
      Console.WriteLine(x);
      break;
    /*...*/
}
