ReSharper: Find usage of a Page.aspx

Question

Normally we reference a page using URL (eg login.aspx) when we create a form or a navigation menu... and when Re-sharper try to find the usage of the class (eg login), it doesn't find the places where I put that URL (eg unregister.aspx or index.aspx). I wonder if somehow we can make explicitly reference it. I don't know if we can't do it by ReSharper comment(something like this) and if it's recommendable or not:

// ReSharper THIS IS A USAGE OF "Login Class"
<a href="~/Login.aspx" ...

The only option that I can think of creating a static public property in the page (eg PageUrl) for store the page name. like:

public static string PageUrl = "Login.aspx";

and the usage will be something like:

<a href="~/<%=Login.PageUrl %>" ...

that will work! but still a little messy.

• Reason:

I am working in a big old project that required maintenance and when you change a page you may have to change the page that used it, because it's possible that you want to maintain the related pages too.

• Conclusion:

Based on the comments, especially of the one from Peter Ritchie, implementing a feature like this because the tools doesn't, it is not recommendable for many reasons (coupling, complexity, time, etc), so this is worthless. Maybe a future version of Resharper or Visual Studio can include this feature.

The best alternative: it's to create a site map (for a developer).

Answer 1

This open source project might be a good place to start. It's meant to filter out unused images, but it should be pretty easy to change so it looks for unused files.
