Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP

I want to put a comment that will let me get to a different block of code in c#

I think I could maybe use cref in the xml comments.

I also found a devious way using the nameof operator.

string fakeString = nameof( NewForm.HandleCommandLineArgments ); // use go to definition to get to NewForm.HandleCommandLineArgments


Any other ideas?

Update:
I realize how to go to definition, ideally I wouldn't have to add "string fakeString". I thought cref is a bit of a bummer since I thought it could only be in xml comments at the top of the method, but you can put them anywhere.

I'm going with:

/// <see cref="NewForm.HandleCommandLineArgments">
PipeClient.SendSimpleStringMessage( "scriptcode", "[Arguments]" + commandLineArguments );

In Visual Studio 2017, you can just use Ctrl+T (or whatever shortcut is assigned to Edit/Go To All) to go to any type. ReSharper has similar functionality even in earlier Visual Studio versions.

Edit/Go To All

More should not be necessary; and variables like your fakeString are really a code smell (and may even cause build/maintenance issues due to "unused variable" diagnostics).

fakeString

If it's something that is related to the method, it's also perfectly acceptable to include links in the XML Doc via <see cref="..."/> and/or <seealso cref="..."/>.

<see cref="..."/>

<seealso cref="..."/>
