The must-have productivity tool for
Visual Studio, ReSharper 4 provides solution-wide error highlighting on
the fly, advanced code completion, superior unit testing tools, over 30
advanced code refactorings, multiple handy navigation and search
utilities, single-click code formatting and cleanup, automatic code
generation and templates, and a lot more productivity features for C#,
VB.NET, ASP.NET, XML, and XAML. ReSharper fully integrates with Visual
Studio to intelligently and powerfully extend the functionality that is
native to Visual Studio.
Key Features: • Code Analysis for C# ReSharper
analyzes and highlights errors in C# code (up to C# 3.0) while you
type, without having to compile it first. It also helps you solve
problems instantly, by suggesting quick-fixes for most errors. You can
analyze your code both in a current file and throughout the entire
solution.
• Coding Assistance To increase your productivity
and save your time, ReSharper drastically extends and improves Visual
Studio's native code completion; introduces color highlighting for
fields, local variables, and types; transforms code using context
actions; lets you move and duplicate blocks of code with ease; suggests
required namespace import directives; auto-inserts brackets, parenthesis
and quotes; promptly shows concise documentation for types, type
members and method parameters as pop-up tips, and a lot more.
•
Code Cleanup Code Cleanup enables you to run a dozen of useful
ReSharper features in one go — specifically, reformat your code
according to custom style settings, arrange usages of 'this' qualifier,
remove code redundancies, convert properties with backup fields to
auto-properties, make fields read-only if possible, optimize using
directives, shorten qualified references, update file header, replace
explicit types with vars, and revamp your code with many more settings.
•
Code Generation ReSharper is smart enough to generate method stubs
from usage, and feature-rich enough to provide special-purpose dialog
boxes for creating constructors, read and write properties, and more.
All these classy tools are readily accessible from a single pop-up
window.
• Code Templates You can use a rich set of predefined
code templates as well as define your own templates to automatically
create loops, arrays, variables, method declarations, and a variety of
other code constructs. File templates, 'surround with' templates and
live templates for C#, VB.NET and XML let you choose the most convenient
way of inserting a ready piece of code in any situation. Editing and
managing templates is now more convenient than ever!
• Navigation
and Search Whenever you need to find a certain type, field, method,
or any other symbol, ReSharper provides you with a variety of ways to do
it. You can find a symbol by name, navigate to a symbol declaration
from its reference in code, or find and highlight symbol usages.
ReSharper also allows you to thoroughly review type hierarchies and file
structures, with its dedicated tool windows that are smartly integrated
into Visual Studio user interface.
• Refactorings ReSharper
traditionally provides a much wider set of automated code refactorings
than Visual Studio. In total, 34 different refactorings are available
that allow you to rename, move, and safely delete symbols; introduce and
inline fields, variables, or parameters; convert legacy constructs to
state-of-the-art C# 3.0 code, and implement many more improvements.
•
Unit Testing ReSharper automatically detects whether your project
contains NUnit tests. It allows you to run and profile unit tests right
from the code editor, shows the structure of tests in your solution, and
provides you with a dedicated window where you can analyze test results
and re-run unit tests. Support for other test frameworks (MbUnit,
xUnit, MSTest) is available via third-party plugins.
• Supported
Languages and Technologies ReSharper 4 Full Edition and C# Edition
extend language support to C# 3.0, including LINQ, implicitly typed
locals and arrays, extension methods, automatic properties, lambda
expressions, object & collection initializers, anonymous types,
expression trees, and partial methods. ReSharper not only analyzes the
new constructs, but provides C# 3.0-related enhancements in a number of
areas — specifically, warnings, suggestions, code completion options,
refactorings, and templates.
• VB.NET ReSharper lets you apply
most of its smart features to VB.NET code, including ASP.NET pages
written in VB.NET. Among other facilities, ReSharper's syntax
highlighting, coding assistance, code generation, navigation and search,
parameter info, quick documentation lookup, and many more features are
available to any VB.NET developer. All refactorings that were provided
for C# 2.0 in ReSharper 3.x are now available for Visual Basic 8. The
greatest benefit is to be experienced by .NET developers working on
mixed C# and VB.NET projects.
• ASP.NET ReSharper 4
significantly speeds up analysis of ASP.NET pages, to enable more web
developers benefit from the great toolset that ReSharper provides. Take
advantage of context actions, quick-fixes, coding assistance,
navigation, refactorings, and other features. For embedded C# code,
error highlighting is available as well. With ReSharper, you can easily
edit and refactor C# code within ASP.NET, as well as web control
properties and events, data sources and content placeholders.
•
XML ReSharper supports all XML files that Visual Studio considers
XML, including .xml, .config, and .resx. Coding assistance, navigation
between matching tags, live templates and 'surround with' templates,
code completion, quick-fixes, and more are all at your disposal.
•
XAML In addition to offering all the features that are available for
pure XML, ReSharper perfectly validates XAML semantics, including
references between XAML entities, helping prevent intractable run-time
errors.
• NAnt and MS Build Scripts Advanced editing
capabilities, previously available only for C#, are now extended to NAnt
and MSBuild scripts — error highlighting, quick-fixes, code completion,
navigation and search, applicable refactorings and file structure view
will make your scripting experience easier.
