Refactoring without preview
- Activate a refactoring command. For example, rename a type by selecting
it in the Outline view and choosing Refactor > Rename
from its pop-up menu.
- The Refactoring Parameters page prompts you for information necessary for
the action. For example, the Rename Type Refactoring dialog asks you for a
new name for the selected type.
- Provide the necessary data on the parameters page, and click OK.
- If no problems are anticipated,
then the refactoring is carried out.
Otherwise, the problems page comes to the front to display the
errors.
- If a fatal problem was anticipated, then only the Back
and Cancel buttons are enabled, and you are prevented from
carrying out the refactoring. If the problems are related to data provided
on the parameters page, click Back and attempt to remedy
the problem. Otherwise, click Cancel to close the dialog.
- If other kinds of problems were anticipated, you can click Continue
to acknowledge the problems. The refactoring is carried out, and the dialog
closes.
