.net - Why is it not possible to remove unused references in C# -


is there reason not possible visual studio remove unused references (to projects , assemblies) in c# , c++ projects while possible visual basic project (see here)?

i know can other tools resharper, wondering if there technical reason not being able in c# , c++ projects? or did microsoft choose work that. seems quite useful feature.

note compiler automatically drop unused references assembly, @ assembly metadata level redundant. becomes ide/tooling issue. impossible? no (although need keep marked copy-local, ensure gets deployed). can assume, therefore, "time implement vs utility" (compared other more useful things done).

i'm sure write ide extension if wanted ;p
