.NET Reflector 9.0 release notes
Published 18 November 2015
16th November, 2015
Features
- Visual Studio add-in now supports Visual Studio 2015
- Support for the following C# 6 features:
Null conditional operator
mightBeNull?.MethodCalledIfNotNull();
Auto property initializers
public class Customer
{
public string First { get; set; } = "Jane";
public string Last { get; set; } = "Doe";
}
Exception filters
try
{
// HTTP request
}
catch (System.Web.HttpException e) if (e.GetHttpCode() == 404)
{
// Handle exception
}
Indexer initializers
var dict = new Dictionary<int,string>
{
[3] = "foo",
[42] = "bar"
};
Expression bodied function members and properties
public int Height { get; set; }
public int Radius { get; set; }
public double Area => Math.PI*2.0*Radius*(Height + Radius);
public override string ToString() => $"Cylinder: Radius={Radius}, Height={Height}";
Roslyn-compiled async code and anonymous methods
The Roslyn compiler and the C#5 compiler emit different IL for asynchronous and anonymous methods. Reflector can now correctly decompile Roslyn-compiled code for these language constructs.
String interpolation
var variables = "cheese";
var s = $"This string has {variables} in it";
