Intellisense doesn't work correctly with Faker about bogus HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi @levipage,

Well, that's hella-annoying. Can you please file a connect bug with the people at Microsoft? Be sure to have them checkout Bogus v9.0.1. This indeed seems like an issue with Visual Studio's IntelliSense.

I suspect what's happening is Visual Studio can't figure out the type information yet when it's confronted with:

.RuleFor<TProperty>(Expression<Func<T, TProperty>> property, Func<Faker, T, TProperty> setter)
.RuleFor<TProperty>(Expression<Func<T, TProperty>> property, Func<Faker, TProperty> setter )
.RuleFor<TProperty>(Expression<Func<T, TProperty>> property, Func<TProperty> valueFunction)

Sooo, soon as you type , VS probably finally narrows down enough type information once the first argument to RuleFor is closed off with ,.

Who knows. I'm using Resharper's IntelliSense and Resharper does not have this problem. So it's most definitely Visual Studio.

I seem to have an API work around: Simply defining a dummy API call with only one Expression<Func<T,TProp>> seems kick Visual Studio IntelliSense into gear:

/// <summary>
/// Visual Studio IntelliSense Work Around. See Issue 54: https://github.com/bchavez/Bogus/issues/54
/// </summary>
[Obsolete("Visual Studio IntelliSense Work Around", true)]
public void RuleFor<TProperty>(Expression<Func<T, TProperty>> property)
{
    throw new NotImplementedException();
}

Releasing shortly. Thanks for bringing this to my attention and please don't forget to file this on Microsoft Connect. https://connect.microsoft.com/visualstudio

Thanks,
Brian

@levipage , can you please give Bogus v9.0.2 a try and see if it resolves your issue?

Please feel free to re-open the issue if the problem persists.

Thanks,

Awesome support man. Impressive also that you were even able to make a workaround for the issue. It is working now!

why is this still not working? 2017? Why do I have to install some extra for VS Code to work?

Bogus is on version thirty something, do i just download the latest and restart VS Code?
