C# – Shortcut to create properties in Visual Studio

ccode-snippetspropertiesshortcutvisual studio

I have seen some people creating properties in C# really fast, but how did they do it?

What shortcuts are available in Visual Studio (currently using Visual Studio 2010) to create properties?

I am using C#.

For example,

public string myString {get;set;}

You could type "prop" and then press tab twice. That will generate the following.

public TYPE Type { get; set; }

Then you change "TYPE" and "Type":

public string myString {get; set;}

You can also get the full property typing "propfull" and then tab twice. That would generate the field and the full property.

private int myVar;

public int MyProperty
{
    get { return myVar;}
    set { myVar = value;}
}
