Refactoring in VS 2005...
-
Heard of Refactor from devexpress? http://www.devexpress.com/Products/NET/IDETools/Refactor/ [Free versions] Refactor!™ for Visual Basic® .NET 2005 http://www.devexpress.com/Products/NET/IDETools/VBRefactor/ Refactor!™ for ASP.NET http://www.devexpress.com/Products/NET/IDETools/RefactorASP/ Refactor!™ for C++ http://www.devexpress.com/Products/NET/IDETools/RefactorCPP/
yep, it seems to do a good impression of Intellisense in causing my VS SP1 to go very busy for significant periods of time. I tried working outside my clearcase integration but still slow. Shame, might try emailing them about it. Otherwise I use Whoile Tomato for the few refactorings it does. May it conflicts with Whole Tomato? Andrew

I guess you mean "C++ refactoring", ain't you? It's all good in! C# :-D
Try Resharper

I used refactorings all the time in IntelliJ (Java IDE from JetBrains). It was smooth, fast, and had a ton of great refactorings. They do have a C# refactoring package - ReSharper (http://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/index.html[^]). Unfortunately my current employer is VB only so I can't use it. Has anyone tried ReSharper from JetBrains? Matt

It depends entirely on the size of your project.

I have an extremely large project, a C# Windows application, and almost anything I do that involves refactoring, renaming, or whatever, takes 1.5 to 2 minutes to complete. That's not very long compared to older tools that used to take all night to do things like that, but it's that length of time which is too short to switch to something else, but still quite a long time to stare at the screen, so it hurts your productivity.

That's why the 3rd party add-on vendors can make a living....

Well, you know who he is. :)

Please excuse my ignorance as I'm new to coding. Just what is Refactoring and why do you do it? Thanks. :doh:
Check Wikipedia: Code Refactoring and What is Refactoring? Also the book "Refactoring". ----

VB .NET? then use Dev Express's free Refactor! for VB tool (only free for VB 2005 though). I too am using VB in my current contract. I started with the free Refactor! Then I bought Refactor! Pro. I've also used Resharper a bit in the past. Both products are good, though not perfect. However, both are way better than VS's built-in refactoring, despite some performance problems. It also appears that Eclipse's refactoring is better than anything on offer for VS at the moment. One of the posters here says that, as does one of my colleagues who's in Java mode at the moment.

I use Resharper from Jetbrains... starting up VS is a little slower, however the refactorings are super speedy - does a great job caching and giving u edit time compilation checking.

The average refactoring takes slightly longer than a full build.
Now that you mention that, I think I know how they implemented refactoring...they compile it all, then let the runtime optimize it, then decompile it all. Yeah....:)

what do u say???
