Getting Class FullName (including namespace) from Roslyn ClassDeclarationSyntax

Getting Class FullName (including namespace) from Roslyn ClassDeclarationSyntax

To get the full name, including the namespace, of a class defined in a ClassDeclarationSyntax node in Roslyn, you can use the GetNamespace() method and the Identifier property of the ClassDeclarationSyntax node.

Here's an example:

using Microsoft.CodeAnalysis; using Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp; using Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp.Syntax; // Syntax tree containing the class declaration SyntaxTree tree = CSharpSyntaxTree.ParseText(@" namespace MyNamespace { class MyClass { // Class members... } }"); // Get the root node of the syntax tree CompilationUnitSyntax root = tree.GetCompilationUnitRoot(); // Find the class declaration node ClassDeclarationSyntax classDeclaration = root.DescendantNodes().OfType<ClassDeclarationSyntax>().Single(); // Get the namespace of the class NamespaceDeclarationSyntax namespaceDeclaration = classDeclaration.GetNamespace(); string @namespace = namespaceDeclaration?.Name.ToString() ?? string.Empty; // Get the full name of the class string className = classDeclaration.Identifier.ToString(); string fullName = string.IsNullOrEmpty(@namespace) ? className : $"{@namespace}.{className}"; Console.WriteLine(fullName); // Output: MyNamespace.MyClass

In this example, we first create a SyntaxTree containing the class declaration. We then get the root node of the syntax tree using the GetCompilationUnitRoot() method.

We find the ClassDeclarationSyntax node using the DescendantNodes() method and the OfType method to filter the results to only include ClassDeclarationSyntax nodes. We assume that there is only one class declaration in the syntax tree, so we use the Single() method to get the first (and only) ClassDeclarationSyntax node.

We then get the namespace of the class using the GetNamespace() method of the ClassDeclarationSyntax node. If the class is not defined within a namespace, the GetNamespace() method returns null. We use the ternary operator to set the @namespace variable to the namespace name if it is not null, or an empty string if it is null.

Finally, we get the name of the class using the Identifier property of the ClassDeclarationSyntax node, and we concatenate the namespace and class names using a period (.) separator to get the full name of the class.

By using the GetNamespace() method and the Identifier property of the ClassDeclarationSyntax node, you can get the full name of a class defined in a syntax tree in Roslyn.
