remove unused code

I also have the exact same question.

I'm using C# .NET 2.  I want to find dead code that is unreferenced in an entire solution, statically, not in a runtime test.

I am also working with some huge libraries where I need only a small percentage of code and want to get rid of all extra unused code. This libraries have hundreds of classes with many cross references. Some Blogs pointed me to ReSharper becasue as teh solution, which I have not found yet in ReSharper.

Hello Alexander,

In ReSharper 4.5 solution-wide unused members will be highlighted in gray
(as other redundant code). This functionality is not available in released
versions, but local analysis about unused code is ReSharper feature for years.

It would be useful to list unused classes and methods in one place after compiling.  It will not be very productive to page through thousands of lines of code, looking for highlights.

Hello G Applqst,

This is something we plan to do, but not in nearest versions. Probably FxCop
can do it?
