Configuring .NET Reflector
Published 10 July 2013
Setting integration options
The integration options are used to add extensions to .NET Reflector, enabling integration with Visual Studio and Windows Explorer.
To access the integration options, on the Tools menu, click Integration Options. The Integration Options dialog box is displayed.
Managing the Visual Studio add-in
You can use the Integration Options dialog box to control whether the Visual Studio add-in is used. This enables you to open .NET Reflector directly from Visual Studio. With this add-in you can right-click on an assembly within Visual Studio and select Open in .NET Reflector.
If you have installed .NET Reflector Pro, see Installing the Visual Studio add-in for further details.
Managing the Windows Explorer add-in
The Windows Explorer add-in enables you to open .NET Reflector directly from Windows Explorer. You can use Windows Explorer to navigate to a particular EXE or DLL file, then right-click and select Browse with .NET Reflector. You can also double-click on DLL files within Windows Explorer to open them directly within .NET Reflector.
Setting .NET Reflector options
You can use the .NET Reflector options to alter how .NET Reflector is used:
- Disassembler - controls the language and formatting that the code is disassembled into and which version of .NET is used for optimization. You can also use this option to control how the documentation is displayed.
- Browser - controls how the code is displayed in the browser and which items are visible. For example, you can select whether to view only public members and types, or everything.
- Appearance - controls the font used for the code and the browser. For example, you can view code with a fixed-width font, rather than the default variable-width font.
- Proxy Server - enables you to select a proxy server to use.
To access the .NET Reflector options, on the View menu, click Options; or on the toolbar, click
