Class Name Not Updating After Renaming and Copying/Pasting File
See original GitHub issueVersion Used: Visual Studio 2019 16.8 Preview 1
Steps to Reproduce:
- Create a new .NET Core Class Library project.
- Click Class1.cs file in Solution Explorer and rename to Class2.cs. Should get a prompt to say renaming file. Click Yes and the
class Class1gets renamed toclass Class2in code. - Copy and paste Class2.cs file (I did at same level in solution). Should have the Class2 - Copy. cs at this point.
- Double click Class2.cs file to see code. The Class name in code is still
class Class1.
Expected Behavior:
I believe Class2 - Copy.cs should also be class Class2 since I made a copy of it after changing the name.
Actual Behavior: The copied file contains the Class name before the original file was renamed, copied and pasted.
Hope this helps.
