Move Type to File sometimes copies leading // comments

created 9 years ago

I've found that Move Type to File refactoring not always copies the comments found at the top of my source file.

I find it very convenient to have the Copyright comment copied along when I extract some type from a source file into another file, but this only happens if the code that I extract requires some additional using statements.

Try extracting IFoo on this piece of source code:

C#
// Copyright © 2016, EPSITEC SA, CH-1400 Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland // Author: Pierre ARNAUD, Maintainer: Pierre ARNAUD using System.Threading.Tasks; namespace Demo { public interface IBar { Task DoBar(); } public interface IFoo { Task DoFoo(); } }

it will include the header.

However, in this piece of code it won't:

C#
// Copyright © 2016, EPSITEC SA, CH-1400 Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland // Author: Pierre ARNAUD, Maintainer: Pierre ARNAUD using System.Threading.Tasks; namespace Demo { public interface IBar { Task DoBar(); } public interface IFoo { string GetFoo(); } }

        Can I have a hotfix? Or is this not possible with the prerelease Roslyn version?

          Hi Pierre,
          We have made a fix, but we need additional time to carefully test it. Also, we are going to release version 16.1.4 in the next few days. We will prepare a hotfix just after the release. Once we do, you will be immediately notified with email.
