Rename refactorings

Last modified: 14 November 2024

Use the Rename refactoring to change names of symbols, files, directories, packages, modules and all the references to them throughout code.

Renaming local variables or private methods can be done easily inline since only the limited scope is affected. Renaming classes or public methods could potentially impact a lot of files. Preview potential changes before you refactor.
