Refactorings - The "Inline method" refactoring creates incorrect code for extension methods

created 6 years ago

Consider the following program:

C#
public class MyClass { public string Method(string a) { return a; } } public static class MyExtensions { public static int GetLength(this MyClass obj, string a) { return obj.Method(a).Length; } } class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { MyClass c = new MyClass(); Console.WriteLine(c.GetLength("Foo")); } }

If I run the refactoring Inline method (or Inline method and delete) on the "GetLength" method, the following invalid code is produced:

C#
class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { MyClass c = new MyClass(); Console.WriteLine(obj.Method("Foo").Length); } }

obj is undeclared, and should have been named 'c' in this case.
