Shortcut to create automatic properties using Visual Studio 2008/2010 or Resharper 5
- by Piers Myers
I have a class that contains a load of properties that contain results of some calculations e.g:
public class Results
{
public double Result1 { get; set; }
public double Result2 { get; set; }
}
In a different class I am doing calculations to populate the above properties, e.g:
public class Calc
{
private Results Calc()
{
Results res = new Results();
res.Result1 = ... some calculation
res.Result2 = ... some other calculation
res.Result3 = ... // not yet defined in 'Results' class
return res;
}
}
When I am writing the Calc class, 'Result3' will be highlighted in red as it is not yet defined in the 'Results' class.
Currently I am using the Resharper ALT-Enter shortcut, selecting "Create Property 'Result3'" which will create the following code int the 'Results' class:
public double Result3
{
get { throw new NotImplementedException(); }
set { throw new NotImplementedException(); }
}
Which I need to manually change to:
public double Result3 { get; set; }
Then I use the CTRL-Shift-Backspace shortcut to take me back to the 'Calc' class.
How can I easily create automatic properties in the 'Results' class if they are not yet defined directly from the 'Calc' class?
