I installed Resharper (v 8.2.2) onto my fresh install of Visual Studio 2013, but noticed that the usual helpers I get over ASP.net MVC methods wasn’t there.
For example, if I had a method like:
public class MyTestController : Controller { public ActionResult Something() { return View(); } }
… and the view (/Views/MyTest/Something.cshtml) didn’t exist, I should get a little popup saying “Cannot resolve view ‘Something’” Like below:
This however, was not happening.
After a lot of googling, I came across this post I realised that the ReSharper.ExternalAnnotations extension needed to be updated, to support MVC 5+
Resharper > Extension Manager
In Updates, sure enough, ReSharper.ExternalAnnotations was listed.
I updated it, restarted Visual Studio.
Now, the missing MVC functionality is back.
