Is there any tool or extension to generate a report which contains data about classes and methods? For example, show a summary of all classes and the methods included in each class with the count of both.
A class method is a method that can be invoked without reference to any object instance; these are called static methods in other languages. The term method usually refers to an instance method. The more specific phrase class method is used to refer to class methods.
Methods are internal procedures in a class that defines the behavior of an object. Methods can access all class attributes that allows to change the object data content. Methods have a parameter interface that is used to supply values while calling methods and receive values back from methods.
Definition. A class is a template for creating or instantiating objects within a program while a method is a function that exposes the behavior of an object. Thus, this is the main difference between class and method.
I found it in Visual studio. go to the following menu option
Analyze > Calculate Code Metrics for Solution
It will show Code Metrics Result window. From this window choose export to excel and you'll get a report with all the projects, Namespaces, Classes, Methods and some other details about them in Excel file.
NDepend lets you perform all kinds of queries about your code. I can't say I've used it myself, but I would be surprised if it didn't let you generate reports.
See reports generated by NDepend here.
See explanations about NDepend code metrics here.
Also you can get all these result both in Visual Studio 2017, 2015, 2013, 2012, 2010, and also in Visual Studio Team Services.
