*There is no development life without R# mate*. I can't even imagine how the
IDE looks like without it.
When I do an installation of my machine I install R# before I even Start VS
for the very first time after it's installation.
It took me a month of convincing to get Wallace (who started to preach R#
earlier in the thread) to install R# and now is the the biggest preacher.
Just like the ex-smokers who are the biggest anti-smoking campaigners :)
Just install it (30 days trial) and LEARN its shortcuts. Then you'll find
yourself coding 3 times faster and easier with more focus on business than
on code.
I can tell you the 6 most critical R# operations that each of them adds 20%
coding speed:
- Alt+Enter: +[Enter]: Almost Anything that happens on the screen (if you
have a lightbulb on the left) can be triggered with this. It's a shortcut
for "Please do for me the most obvious task I would do in this location)
- E.g. Rename current (field, property, ...) to respect the default
naming conventions
- Import Namespace for the class that does not have name imports (even
if it's not selected but in view)
- Change anonymous method to lambda expression
- Alt+Insert - Insert stuff (new properties (with backing fields, auto or
with exception), all combinations of constructors, delegated
methods/properties, ToString formatting, interface implementations)
- F2 (or Ctrl+R+R): Rename Anything. That includes fixing config files,
strings appearances and more
- Find Usages: super fast, super smart, you can group results or filter
them
- Goto Implementation/Base - 'nuf said
- Alt + W: Highlight Usages
I should be able to et a 10% discount for you if you want :)
