Measure Project / Solution Build Times

mruiz2112 · June 23, 2025, 6:52pm

I’m trying to create a Resharper plugin for measuring local build times at both the project and solution level. I was able to create a Visual Studio extension for this, but my company uses Rider as well and would like to be able to measure and compare builds on both IDEs.

The documentation and GitHub examples I’ve been able to find don’t even compile and it’s been a frustrating process trying to figure it out. Hoping someone here can point me in the right direction and I can at least get some code to compile.

I tried starting with these files:

github.com/JetBrains/sample-resharper-plugin

SampleReSharperPlugin/src/SolutionStateTracker/SolutionStateTracker.cs

master

using System;
using JetBrains.Annotations;
using JetBrains.Application;
using JetBrains.DataFlow;
using JetBrains.ProjectModel;
using JetBrains.ProjectModel.Tasks;
using JetBrains.ReSharper.Resources.Shell;

namespace SampleReSharperPlugin
{
    [ShellComponent]
    public class SolutionStateTracker : ISolutionStateTracker
    {
        public ISolution Solution { get; private set; }
        public ISignal<ISolution> AfterSolutionOpened { get; }
        public ISignal<ISolution> BeforeSolutionClosed { get; }

        public IProperty<string> SolutionName;

        public static SolutionStateTracker Instance => Shell.Instance.GetComponent<SolutionStateTracker>();

This file has been truncated. show original

github.com/JetBrains/sample-resharper-plugin

SampleReSharperPlugin/src/SolutionComponent/SampleSolutionComponent.cs

master

using JetBrains.DataFlow;
using JetBrains.ProjectModel;
using JetBrains.Util;

namespace SampleReSharperPlugin
{
    [SolutionComponent]
    public class SampleSolutionComponent
    {
        // You can demand almost any ReSharper components in the constructor
        public SampleSolutionComponent(Lifetime lifetime, ISolutionStateTracker solutionStateTracker)
        {
            solutionStateTracker.AfterSolutionOpened.Advise(lifetime,
                () => { MessageBox.ShowInfo("Finished loading the solution"); });
        }
    }
}

and both won’t build for me as-is. Tried getting help from AI as well but no luck.

Thanks in advance
