Code contracts cannot prove elment exists in the list
Basically, I want the item to be added to the list if it doesn't already exist in it. It seems sensible to have a post-condition to ensure that this item exists in the list after the method completes. Below is a minimal example that gives me the error "CodeContracts: Provides Unproven: _numbers.Contains (n)". Any ideas why this isn't working or is there a way to rewrite the code to make it work?
class Test
{
private List<int> _numbers = new List<int>();
public void Add(int n)
{
Contract.Ensures(_numbers.Contains(n));
if (!_numbers.Contains(n))
{
_numbers.Add(n);
}
}
[ContractInvariantMethod]
void ObjectInvariants()
{
Contract.Invariant(_numbers != null);
}
}
