Resharper sucks Follow

#region Menu Items
private void newToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
     if (m_Project != null)
     {
          closeToolStripMenuItem_Click(null, EventArgs.Empty);
 
          if (m_Project != null)
               return; // Project is still open; closing the old one must have failed
     }

Resharper thinks that the second if is redundant ("Expression is always true").

Bullshit.

closeToolStripMenuItem_Click alone will decide what the value of m_Project will be when it completes. Therefore, the expression is not always true.

I really hate software that thinks it's smarter than I am.

The only thing Resharper does well is refactor. Everything else should be a separate product. The Visual Studio integration is so intrusive that if I turn code analysis off completely (most of the hints are counter-productive and annoying), VS' own code analysis doesn't work anymore either.

Hello,

Thank you very much for feedback! This is a known problem as ReSharper doesn't
yet perform an interprocedural value-flow analysis on-the-fly and doesn't
know that the value of m_Project can change inside tripMenuItem_Click. We're
planning to address this problem in one of the future releases. As to VS'
own code analysis, you can enable it back by turning on 'Underline errors
in the editor' option under Tools | Options | Text Editor | C# | Advanced.

IMO the only thing ReSharper has to offer is its spell checker. It constantly gets in the way of Visual Studio, and frankly I don't have the hours needed to train it.

Hi,

ReSharper offers many features to users (not only spellchecker).

Please take a look at this document: https://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/compare/resharper-vs-visual-studio/

Thank you!
