Code Inspection in F#
JetBrains Rider's code analysis in F# is provided by the F# Compiler Service. Nevertheless, the key code analysis features supported in C# and VB.NET (except for quick-fixes) are also available in F#. For more information about these features, refer to the Code Analysis section where you'll also find useful keyboard shortcuts.
Enable the F# Support plugin
This functionality relies on the F# Support plugin, which is bundled and enabled in JetBrains Rider by default. If the relevant features are not available, make sure that you did not disable the plugin.
Press Ctrl+Alt+S to open settings and then select .
Open the Installed tab, find the F# Support plugin, and select the checkbox next to the plugin name.
Code inspection
The analysis is performed by applying code inspections to the current document or in any specified scope.
Solution-Wide Analysis
JetBrains Rider not only analyzes errors in the current file, but also inspects the whole solution taking the dependencies between files into account.
Open the All Solution Files tab of the Problems window Alt+6 to view the results of analysis.
