ReSharper 4.0

  • Comprehensive support for Visual Studio 2008 and 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.
  • Errors, warnings and suggestions are complemented by hints, which are by far the most non-intrusive way to recommend coding improvements.
  • .NET Framework classes were annotated with custom attributes to make ReSharper analyze your code even better than before - for instance, to let it know where format strings should be passed or where null values can or can not be assigned. You can also use these custom attributes to annotate your own source code, as well as library symbols that you don't have source code for.
  • Code Cleanup - a powerful successor to Reformat Code. By simply running Code Cleanup, you can instantly apply a dozen of actions, including arranging 'this' qualifiers, removing code redundancies, migrating to auto-properties, optimizing using directives, and many more.
  • All ReSharper refactorings now support C# 3.0. New members of the refactoring family are available, including Convert Method to Indexer, Convert Indexer to Method, Convert Static to Extension Method, Convert Extension Method to Plain Static, Convert Property to Auto Property, Convert Anonymous to Named Type, and Inline Method. All refactorings that are not C# 3.0-specific are now available for Visual Basic 8.
  • Complete Statement - a new feature that inserts necessary syntax elements (braces, semicolons etc.) and gets you to the position to start the next statement.
  • CamelHumps in Code Completion. All three completion features - Symbol Completion, Smart Completion, and Import Symbol Completion - let you complete any symbol by entering only its uppercase characters.
  • Templates Explorer and Template Editor - a redesigned set of tools to view, manage, and edit the three types of templates that ReSharper provides. From now on, you can manage and classify your templates in a special-purpose window, and edit them right in a Visual Studio code pane.
  • Recent Edits - a drop-down list similar to existing Go To features that shows files and symbols that you recently modified.
  • Go to Type / Symbol / File features allow you to display destination types/symbols/files in the Find Results window.
  • To-do items are now discoverable in identifiers and strings.
  • File Structure, Go to File Member, and Go to Next/Previous Member all support XML and XAML.
  • Vast improvements in Quick Documentation, including hyperlinks to related items, back/forward navigation, "read more" links and navigating to source.
  • Smoother interaction with Visual Studio ecosystem. The quality of interaction with frameworks, add-ins, version control clients and other members of the Visual Studio ecosystem (.NET Compact Framework, BizTalk, and Silverlight included) is brought to a new level.
  • ASP.NET Speedup. ReSharper 4.0 significantly speeds up analysis and, consequently, editing of ASP.NET pages, to enable more web developers benefit from the great toolset that ReSharper provides.
