While doing some work in WPF for a customer project I found myself writing far too often code like this:

private bool isSelected;

public bool IsSelected
{
    get { return isSelected; }
    set
    {
        isSelected = value;
        OnPropertyChanged("IsSelected");
    }
}

Auto-properties simply don’t work with INotifyPropertyChanged so you have to do all the grunt work over again .. Thank god there is Resharper!

It’s said lazyness is a virtue on a programmer, so I made this little Live Template that will create all that code with you only having to fill in type and name of your property:
