hi
is there a way to refactoring the entire project programmatically, at least renaming all methods and properties ?
An object-oriented and type-safe programming language that has its roots in the C family of languages and includes support for component-oriented programming.
There is nothing in standard Visual Studio for this. From my experience Resharper (paid for VS extension) does this extremely well and much more which I've been using for years. Have no experience with free extensions such as Roslynator which is free from the marketplace, might want to check it out.
hey @Karen Payne MVP
non of the lib you mentioned do renaming all Methods/Names programmatically.
what i want to achieve is to do obfuscation for my code before i publish it.

Do you want to rename all references to a method or property in the project at once?
If yes, please check the documentation:

hi @Timon Yang-MSFT
i think you have to read the original question again, because i want it programmatically not manually,
As far as I know, there seems to be no such way.
The only possible approach is to load the code as a string and then use String.Replace Method to modify some method names, but this does not seem to achieve the function of obfuscate your code.
