# disallow `with` statements (no-with)
The `with` statement is potentially problematic because it adds members of an object to the current scope, making it impossible to tell what a variable inside the block actually refers to.
## Rule Details
This rule disallows `with` statements.
If ESLint parses code in strict mode, the parser (instead of this rule) reports the error.
Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule:
```js
/*eslint no-with: "error"*/
with (point) {
r = Math.sqrt(x * x + y * y); // is r a member of point?
}
```
Examples of **correct** code for this rule:
```js
/*eslint no-with: "error"*/
/*eslint-env es6*/
const r = ({x, y}) => Math.sqrt(x * x + y * y);
```
## When Not To Use It
If you intentionally use `with` statements then you can disable this rule.
