Question

I’m trying to find a way to have Resharper format a switch statement like this (using Ctrl+E, Ctrl+C):

switch (int_i) {
    case 1  : Console.WriteLine("You entered one");
              break;
    case 2  : Console.WriteLine("You entered two");
              break;
    case 3  : Console.WriteLine("You entered three");
              break;
    default : Console.WriteLine("Please enter a number between 1 and 5");
              break;
}

I personally don’t like this style at all, but it’s being used in a book I’m studying and I’d like Resharper to help me format my code the same way.

There are two things to note here:

1. The statements have to start on the same line as the case statement.
2. The colons have to be aligned, so because default is longer than case 3 there has to be an extra space before the colon on case 1, case 2 and case 3.

Can Resharper do this?

Answer 1

You can customize code formatting in ReSharper – Options – Languages – C# – Formatting Style, but it seems there is nothing about you are asking. Closest thing I found – braces formatting in Switch statement.
