Finding Sub-Classes and Implementations

My favorite way to find subclasses of class 'X' or implementations of interface 'Y' has been to use Red Gate's Reflector. But I'd like to know if there is a (free) way to do the same thing from VS 2010. Does 2010 already have this ability? Is there a plugin I can add?

The object browser, the place I might expect this feature to be found, does not seem to have this capability. It ca开发者_如何学Cn tell you about a parent type, but it does not tell you about derived types.

A more non-straight forward but works in all cases is to temporarily change the class/interface that you are modifying to abstract and add a abstract method.property and rebuild the solution :) all the build errors would point you towards the direct/indirect children.

While I've not found a RedGate Reflector level of functionality for this need, I have started using a partial solution. Using the regex search capability in VS, I enter the following:

\:.@<place base class or interface here>

Example:

\:.@MyBase

Any derivative interface or class made from "MyBase," defined in the solution, will be returned.

I've just found free Inheritance Margin Extension. With this I can view inheritance info right in the code editor and also navigate to base/overridden items (with right mouse click on the inheritance glyph).
