extract-method

Extract method refactoring turns a selected block of C# statements into a new private method, automatically inferring parameters and return values, then replacing the original block with a call to the new method.

Extract method analyzes the selected C# code block to determine which local variables are read or modified, inferring the new method's parameters and return values to ensure functional equivalence at the call site.

Yes, this refactoring operates on C# code within loaded solutions using Roslyn, enforcing a preview before applying changes and running compile checks after extraction to verify code integrity.

When an infeasible selection is encountered during extraction, the process provides error handling to prevent invalid refactoring, ensuring only cohesive, extractable C# code blocks are turned into new methods.

The best way to reduce method complexity is identifying cohesive code blocks and extracting them into properly parameterized private methods, replacing the original statements with a method call and verifying compilation.

Yes, extract method operates on C# code within loaded solutions to analyze syntax, determine parameters and return values, update the call site, and perform post-extraction compile checks.
