코드베이스를 NRT로 마이그레이션하기

마이그레이션의 과제

1단계: 경고만 활성화

<!-- Phase 1: warnings only, no breaking change -->
<PropertyGroup>
  <Nullable>warnings</Nullable>
</PropertyGroup>

<!-- Phase 2: full enable per file as you migrate -->
<!-- Phase 3: switch to enable globally when done -->

2단계: 파일별로 활성화

#nullable enable
// Now this file has full NRT analysis

public class OrderService
{
    private readonly IOrderRepository _repo;
    // Compiler now warns about uninitialized non-nullable fields,
    // unsafe dereferences, and assignment to non-nullable

    public OrderService(IOrderRepository repo) => _repo = repo;
}

// Other files without #nullable enable are still unchecked

경고 분류하기

// Category 1: safe to suppress with null!
// EF Core navigation properties — set by EF, never null in practice
public class Order
{
    public Customer Customer { get; set; } = null!;
}

// Category 2: real bug — must fix
public string GetFullName()
{
    return FirstName + " " + LastName; // LastName was string? -- BUG!
}

생성자 경고 CS8618 수정

// BEFORE (CS8618)
public class Product
{
    public string Name { get; set; }   // warning
    public Category Category { get; set; } // warning
}

// AFTER — constructor required:
public class Product
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public Category Category { get; set; }

    public Product(string name, Category category)
    {
        Name = name;
        Category = category;
    }
}

레거시 API 처리

// Legacy API returns 'string' but might be null (oblivious type)
string? legacyResult = OldLibrary.GetValue(); // store as nullable
if (legacyResult is null) return;

// Or convert at the boundary:
string safe = OldLibrary.GetValue() ?? "";

// For third-party types, check if they have NRT annotations:
// NuGet packages often add nullable annotations in newer versions

특정 경고를 억제하는 #pragma 사용

// Suppress for a specific case with explanation:
#pragma warning disable CS8618 // ORM populates this via reflection
public DbSet<Product> Products { get; set; }
#pragma warning restore CS8618

// Or inline with a comment:
public DbSet<Order> Orders { get; set; } = null!; // set by EF Core

NRT 경고를 오류로 처리하기

<!-- After full migration: treat nullable warnings as build errors -->
<PropertyGroup>
  <Nullable>enable</Nullable>
  <TreatWarningsAsErrors>true</TreatWarningsAsErrors>
  <!-- Or selectively: -->
  <!-- <WarningsAsErrors>CS8600;CS8602;CS8603</WarningsAsErrors> -->
</PropertyGroup>

공개 API에 주석 달기

public interface IProductService
{
    // Contract: FindById MAY return null, GetById never does
    Product? FindById(int id);
    Product  GetById(int id);  // throws if not found

    // Collection: never null (may be empty)
    IReadOnlyList<Product> GetAll();

    // String: may be empty but not null
    string GetSummary(int id);
}

마이그레이션 지표 및 추적

# Count NRT warnings in current build
dotnet build 2>&1 | grep -c 'CS860[0-9]\|CS861[0-9]\|CS862[0-9]'

# List files still missing #nullable enable
grep -rL '#nullable enable' src/ --include='*.cs'

# Track in CI: fail if warning count increases
# Set a budget: warnings <= N, where N decreases each sprint
