Convert Interface to Abstract Class refactoring
ReSharper_Function2Indexer
This refactoring converts interfaces into abstract classes thus helping you quickly change hierarchical dependency among a set of classes and interfaces.
Consider the following example:
Before refactoring | After refactoring |
|---|---|
interface Shape
{
double Area { get; }
void Draw();
}
class Circle : Shape
{
private readonly int radius;
public double Area
{
get { return Math.PI*Math.Pow(radius, 2); }
}
public void Draw()
{
//do something
}
}
|
abstract class Shape
{
public abstract double Area { get; }
public abstract void Draw();
}
class Circle : Shape
{
private readonly int radius;
public override double Area
{
get { return Math.PI*Math.Pow(radius, 2); }
}
public override void Draw()
{
//do something
}
}
|
To turn a suitable interface into an abstract class
-
Select an interface in one of the following ways:
In the editor, set the caret at the name of an interface.
Select an interface in the Solution Explorer.
Select an interface in the File Structure window.
Select an interface in the Class View.
Select an interface in the Object Browser.
Select an interface in the type dependency diagram.
- Do one of the following:
Press Ctrl+Shift+R and then choose Convert Interface to Abstract Class
Right-click and choose Refactor | Convert Interface to Abstract Class in the context menu.
Choose in the main menu.
If no conflicts are found, ReSharper performs the refactoring immediately. Otherwise, it prompts you to resolve conflicts.
