ROSLYN.DOCUMENTATION.CA1200 : Avoid using cref tags with a prefix (C#)

See Roslyn-Detected C# Warning Classes for more information.

Summary

Use of cref tags with prefixes should be avoided, since it prevents the compiler from verifying references and the IDE from updating references during refactorings. It is permissible to suppress this error at a single documentation site if the cref must use a prefix because the type being mentioned is not findable by the compiler. For example, if a cref is mentioning a special attribute in the full framework but you're in a file that compiles against the portable framework, or if you want to reference a type at higher layer of Roslyn, you should suppress the error. You should not suppress the error just because you want to take a shortcut and avoid using the full syntax.

This check corresponds to Roslyn rule CA1200. For full rule details, see the Microsoft website: CA1200.
