• Aug 27, 2019

Availability

Available when the cursor is in a discard variable.

How to Use

1. Place the caret in a discard variable.

NOTE

The blinking cursor shows the caret's position where Refactoring is available.

C#

class RemoveDiscardVariable {
    string GetMethodName(ISymbol symbol) {
        if (symbol is IMethodSymbol │_) {
            return symbol.Name;
        }
        return null;
    }
}

2. Use the Ctrl + . or Ctrl + ~ shortcut to invoke the Code Actions Menu.

3. Select Remove Discard Variable from the menu.

After execution, the Refactoring removes the discard variable.

C#

class RemoveDiscardVariable {
    string GetMethodName(ISymbol symbol) {
        if (symbol is IMethodSymbol) {
            return symbol.Name;
        }
        return null;
    }
}
