Is there a way to see decompiled C# code in VS Code?

Is there a way to see decompiled C# code in VS Code?

Whenever I go to the decompiled implementation, I see only interfaces of methods, but not the implementation. I heard that some people claim that VS Code can show decompiled implementation as well and was wondering if it is true and how could I enable the feature in VS Code.

Solution

  • I suppose you have installed the omnisharp extension (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-dotnettools.csharp)

    You can turn on the setting "Enable Decompilation Support", which is disabled per default. After turning that on, you should be able to see the decompiled code right away.
