IntentionallyInconsistentParameterOrder
Acknowledges that the annotated function or constructor deliberately orders its parameters differently from its other overloads.
The library-api-watchdog compiler plugin warns about publicly visible overloads that declare the same parameter names in a different relative order, because users transfer their expectations between overloads: an inconsistent order of same-named parameters invites silently swapped arguments. Apply this annotation to suppress the warning when the differing order is intended. The annotated declaration is also no longer used as an ordering reference for other overloads.
See the check documentation for rationale and examples.
Parameters
why the differing parameter order is intended.
