On-the-fly code inspections to find and instantly fix errors and code smells; cross-language refactorings; ASP.NET and ASP.NET MVC development assistance; extended navigation, unit test runner; and many more productivity features.
The best tool for the daily C# coding. It saves a lot of time and prevent most of common errors that helps to write more stable and clear to understand code. Works fine with very different project types - from simple class library to MVC razor-based web application. Good job guys! Thank you!
Resharper bothers more than it helps. And, when you uninstall all the problems appear.
When uninstalling: In font and colors, i needed to manually remove all resharper entries, because after uninstall, were not removed. (in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\FontAndColors\)
When using: I'm using a Optiflex 330 (E6600) processor. It's no much slow, but using Resharper, VS2010 stopping works many times. Without Resharper, VS2010 works fine !
sorry about One star, but this is the true. PS: I saw a video about "ReSharper" that seemed fantastic. But
Edited: . Memory is 4Gb but the system can use only 3GB. . Installed Extensions: ADO.NET C# POCO Generator, PowerCommands, Productivity Power Tools, Visual Studio Color Theme Editor, VSCommands (disabled), WITDesigner, Xaml Styler. I think can have some incompatibility with other extensions. Resharper is not an extension free, it is not also cheap, it would owe and/or it should alert the user. I don't need all of the resources of Resharper. Maybe, should have a light version or 'a la carte' version where you can select the resources that you can use.
Thanks Antonio We'll consider changing system requirements for ReSharper. As of now, your configuration formally meets the minimum requirements (Core2 Duo 2Hz, 2GB RAM) but judging by our recent support experience, this coupled with multiple other extensions turns out too harsh on Visual Studio in many cases. As to a light/customizable version of ReSharper, this is hard to implement because too many ReSharper features are dependent on an underlying solution model that ReSharper builds and maintains in memory. Thanks for your feedback anyway. We'd love to make ReSharper work better for lower-tier machines but at this point, it's not clear how we could do that other than gradually optimizing code (which we're doing all the time).
It has lots of cool things, but often crashed VS2010 on me. The crashes seem to occur when Resharper is trying to parse a complex LINQ statement or while I am typing in or copy/pasting a new code block (like switch/case) and there are gross syntax errors.
Even when working well, Resharper adds many seconds when a solution is first loaded and hesitations here and there as it processed things. It was very frustrating.
Ultimately, other extensions do a lot of the same things and Resharper was just too annoying to keep using, even if it were free...which it certainly is not!
- Edit, weird, I kept calling Resharper "refactor". Maybe a Freudian slip because Resharper's changes the Refactor->Rename function really annoyed me and were hard to undo. Thank you for the response JetBrains, but I have enough going on now. This may help though: I often had lockups on the LINQ commands within "LtxOpenXml.cs", part of Microsoft's Open XML SDK.
Thanks Roy. We have installed MS Open XML SDK v1 and v2, and none of them contains any source code, only dlls, XML, and documentation. We have taken a related project containing LtxOpenXml.cs at http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ericwhite/archive/2008/11/14/using-linq-to-query-excel-tables.aspx but we haven't managed to reproduce any crashes with it. Are we missing something? Is Open XML SDK source code or samples publicly available anywhere? Thanks!
Do the refactoring options work for you guys? ALl options are grayed out for me.
When I said the refactoring options are grayed out, I meant, for example, when I click on a function name the extracting a class from parameter option is grayed out in three places that i checked -- Ctrl+shift+R, right click, and Resharper menu. Similarly, other options are grayed.
I see. Which language are you working with? Which R# build are you using? Are other ReSharper features (navigation, code inspections) available?
Upd: There's a problem related to yours documented on stackoverflow (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9509251/unable-to-change-signature-v6-1) - does the proposed solution work for you?
I installed ReSharper because I had multiple problems with it; from slow intellisense to slow building and code was not working correctly until I uninstalled ReSharper. I have been using Visual Studio since 2002. I would not recommend this product for any coder with 2010 or the company I work for, which is a fortune 500 company!
Sorry for a late reply but that's the way life is: we've not had any respond functionality here in VSG until very recently. It's unfortunate that you've had experience like this with ReSharper, especially considering that hundreds of thousands ReSharper users are enjoying a smooth ride with it. I understand this is a bit late to ask for details of ReSharper's misbehavior. What I can suggest at this point is that you try out the latest version of the product which is 6.1: it contains hundreds of bug and performance fixes. If for some reason it's still working below par for you, please let us know the details. Thank you
Any plans to make a standalone version of R# or one that integrates with Visual Studio Express. (Express does support extensions through the "Extension Manager" but perhaps not via third party installers. There is an "Online Gallery" in the Extension Manager which I believe is maintained by Microsoft.)
Thanks for your question!
Unfortunately, no such plans as yet.
As you correctly guess, we can't install into Express, only into Professional or higher.
Standalone IDE is not on our agenda right now as well.

Great product, only marked down for the price and the pestering after expiry.
Response by JetBrains Sat 6:19 PM - Thanks for your feedback. What do you mean when you say "pestering" though?
Hi JetBrains, thought had to start a discussion because there was no other option to respond to your question, I dodn't see any function to reply to a response.
I really do love all the work you put into your cooltool, a must-have for any enterprise. My impressions are several years old so correct me if I'm wrong.
What I meant is that once it expired, it popped up pestering messages every time I opened a project, and there was no simple uninstall button there and then - just close, and go uninstall manually, when I next had time. It added valuable pain and extra clicks to opening projects.
I presume you're going to tell me that's not the case any more?
Regards,
Pedro
Hi Pedro,
Switching to the discussion format was the best option as VSG provides very weird support for discussions under Reviews.
Thanks for describing exactly what kind of behavior you were not happy with.
I would love to say that it's not the case any more but unfortunately it is. If ReSharper evaluation has expired and it doesn't see a valid license key, its License Information dialog does pop up on every Visual Studio launch. We have enabled functionality to suspend ReSharper through Tools > Options but there's no quick uninstall button right now. We do have a prototype of a new license dialog but it's not implemented just yet. We're hoping to be able to make improvements in this area for the next release later this year.
I would propose to allow users to select - what features to install with ReSharper.
Let say - I would do not install Unit Testing features from Jet Brains
Are you going to allow features selection during installation?
Thank you !
Hi Dmitry,
We haven't previously received requests similar to yours.
We will consider introducing this functionality in future versions but in any case, this is not something that you should expect in near term.
It would be great if you create a feature request in ReSharper issue tracker at http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issues/RSRP so that we could have it on our radar while you and other users were able to track its progress and vote for it. Thank you!
Hi guys!
I'm using VS 2008 C# and Resharper together
I'm facing the follow problem:
I've changed to other color scheme on my VSTS IDE. Some colors changed but not whole.
Every file that i've apllied changes some colors but just the name of the classes remain blue.
What could I do to solve this problem?
I've tried find something in Tools > Options > Font and colors but the option related to classes is not setted blue but the real color that must appear.
Everytime I disable Resharper 5.0, the colors are aplllied succefully!
Thanks in advance,
Anderson
Try going into in R# Options... under Code Inspection -> Settings make sure "Color identifiers" is unchecked. Maybe that won't turn out to be what you mean, but it's worth a shot.
