Convert to Auto-implemented Property

• Jun 07, 2019

Removes the backing store, and converts this property to an Auto-implemented Property.

Availability

Available from the context menu or via shortcuts:

• when the edit cursor or caret is on a property declaration statement. The property should have a simple getter that returns a field, value and a simple setter that assigns that field a value.

Example

C#

private string fPropertyA;

public string │PropertyA {
    get { return fPropertyA; }
    set { fPropertyA = value; }
}

VB.NET

Private fPropertyA As String
Public Property │PropertyA
    Get
        Return fPropertyA
    End Get
    Set(ByVal value)
        fPropertyA = value
    End Set
End Property

Result:

C#

public string PropertyA { get; set; }

VB.NET

Public Property PropertyA() As Object
