roslyn

I'm trying to make an extension for Visual Studio that changes some syntax in the code. Actually, I've done the first step which was to change the name of a variable if this name was not okey with the rules we use in the firm. For example: int newVariable; double test; will be changed into: int iNewVariable; double dblTest; Now I have to change this type of comment: (SingleLineComment) //this is a single line Comment Into a MultiLineComment /*Here it's a MultiLine one*/ I use the Roslyn Syntax Visualiser to find the type and kind to make a correct code, but nothing works. Here it's what I've

I am working on a code analyser using Roslyn and my current task is to find all internal methods which are unused in the assembly. I start with a MethodDeclarationSyntax and get the symbol from that. I then use the FindCallersAsync method in SymbolFinder , but it returns an empty collection even when I am making a call to the method in question somewhere in the assembly. See the code below. protected override void Analyze(SyntaxNodeAnalysisContext context) { NodeToAnalyze = context.Node; var methodDeclaration = NodeToAnalyze as MethodDeclarationSyntax; if (methodDeclaration == null) return;

I'm using the SymbolFinder to find all references to a certain type in my solution like this: ISymbol typeOfInterest = compilation.GetTypeByMetadataName( "System.Reflection.PropertyInfo"); var references = SymbolFinder.FindReferencesAsync(typeOfInterest, solution).Result; foreach (var reference in references) { // reference.Locations => symbol? } This part is working fine, the SymbolFinder returns correct ReferenceLocations (upon manual inspection). I'm actually interested in the symbols at these locations to get more (semantic) information about the references, so I can filter upon / work

using Roslyn/Microsoft.CodeAnalysis, how can I get the ISymbol for a third-party type, ie, a type defined in a referenced assembly which is not part of the solution? In my particular case, I'm looking for JSON.NET's JObject, but actually the same question would be valid for BCL stuff like StringBuilder etc. The only idea I've come up so far is to implement a CSharpSyntaxWalker which looks for all method invocations, property accesses and constructor calls, checks whether they are made on the type I'm interested in and if yes, gets the symbol from the respective SyntaxNode. I'm going to

I have the case wherein I need to convert a C#- to a VB.NET project. (I want to automate this, so I cannot use an online tool or something similar) There is a "Paste as C#/VB" sample visual studio extension which seemed to be able to do this. I tried converting this class: namespace TestApplication { class Class1 { /// <summary> /// Lorem /// </summary> public void Lorem() { } } } But it ended up with this: Namespace TestApplication Class Class1 ''' <summary> Lorem </summary> Public Sub Lorem() End Sub End Class End Namespace It does not only happen when XML-documentation comments are provided

I am trying to send one class through hostObject but apparently it doesn't want to work: using Roslyn.Compilers; using Roslyn.Compilers.CSharp; using Roslyn.Scripting; using Roslyn.Scripting.CSharp; public class ShippingService { public class ShippingDetails//class that I want to send { public decimal total { get; set; } public int quantity { get; set; } public string destination { get; set; } } public static string ShipingCost(decimal total, int quantity, string destination) { var details = new ShippingDetails { total = total, quantity = quantity, destination = destination }; try {
