Problem
The list of base and derived types in ILSpy does not show anything useful in the output. At least assembly name and list of base types would be helpful, but I don't see any reason why the whole type, which already provides this information, cannot be decompiled in place - it is a simple change in the code and users do not have to jump back and forth when going through and comparing the implementations.
Solution
BaseTypesTreeNode
andDerivedTypesTreeNode
) were calling all children to decompile. However, with increasing information in child nodes, it is not sustainable. They now explicitly list the children type names only, like they did before.
