Questions tagged [resharper]

ReSharper is a refactoring and productivity extension by JetBrains that extends native functionality of Microsoft Visual Studio versions since 2003.

ReSharper is a productivity tool for Visual Studio that aims to improve the developer experience. Providing additional features for error correction, code completion, navigation, search, syntax highlighting, formatting and cleanup, code generation and optimization, it carries out a large number of automated refactorings and streamlines unit testing using NUnit, MSTest, xUnit.net, MSpec (via plugin), amongst other features (all without the need to compile).

Current ReSharper releases support Visual Studio 2010-2019; previous versions supported Visual Studio 2003-2008.

ReSharper currently supports C#, VB.NET, ASP.NET, ASP.NET MVC, Razor, TypeScript, JavaScript, CSS, HTML, XML, XAML, MSBuild and NAnt build scripts.

ReSharper's functionality can be significantly extended with its Open API. In fact, most of ReSharper's features are implemented using this same API that is available in ReSharper plugins.

Is there a way to disable ReSharper for a specific file?

I want to tell ReSharper to ignore a few files in my project. Some of them are just too large (they contain canned test data). Some of them are just confusing it (with a mishmash of Silverlight and .NET code). Is there a way to do this by putting a…

ReSharper complains when method can be static, but isn't

Why does ReSharper complain when a method can become static, but is not? Is it because only one instance of a static method is created (on the type) and thus save on performance?

Alphabetizing methods in Visual Studio

Is there any sort of plug-in or tool available for Visual Studio 2008 to alphabetize methods? Ideally I'd like a tool that will alphabetize a selection, or specified type (i.e. only methods, not member variables), either automatically or on-demand.
