C# shortcut or shorthand getter setter

Question

Is there a short way to create the getter and setter in c#?

public string fname {get; set;} 

Is there short hand to generate {get; se

Answer 1

If you just want the getter and setter, as orignally asked for, you could also create a custom snippet:

    
        

            
            Inserts getter/setter shorthand code
            gs
        
        
            
                
            
        
    

Save the above as a .snippet in your snippets folder. Typing 'gs' and pressing Tab will insert { get; set;} and move to the end of the line.

Edit

In VS Code, this would be a custom user snippet in your csharp.json file:

"Getter Setter": {
    "prefix": "gs",
    "body": [
        "\\{ get; set; \\}",
        "$1"
    ],
    "description": "Insert shorthand autoproperties"
}

Either of these examples could easily be modified/duplicated to also do { get; } (use a readonly backing field) or { get; private set; }
