Generate type members

With ReSharper, you can quickly generate different type members. To view the list of available code generation options for the current type, press Alt+Insert or choose ReSharper | Edit | Generate Code… in the main menu.

tip

Depending on your settings, stubs for new members can be generated in different ways. For example, they can throw new NotImplementedException(), return default value, or include code that will not compile. You can configure these and other preferences on the Code Editing | Members Generation page of ReSharper options (Alt+R, O).

tip

To bind any code generation command to its own shortcut, go to Tools | Options | Environment | Keyboard and assign a shortcut for the ReSharper_Generate command.

Most of ReSharper's member generation features are available in C# and Visual Basic .NET, some are available in several languages, others are language-specific. The table below lists all member generation features and languages/technologies where they are supported.

The instructions and examples given in the topics within this section address the use of member generation features in C#. For more information on member generation features available for specific languages, see the corresponding topics in the ReSharper by language section.
