Is there a way to rename all methods, properties etc. suggested by R#. I have code that I converted from java and all methods and properties are in the format like this "onBeforeInsertExpression" and I want them to follow camel casing that is common in .NET.
This question is also for CodeRush.
No, unfortunately there isn't a way. Resharper's Code Cleanup / Reformat Code options work nicely for formatting, namepaces, etc, but will not do any automatic member renaming. You're kinda stuck doing a "Quick Fix" on each member. If you have a lot of them, this can be a pain...
I needed the same functionality and couldn't find it. I considered writing an add-in to ReSharper using the Api but decided on a regular Visual Studio macro instead. This macro renames methods and private fields in the current document to the default ReSharper settings, but can easily be modified to iterate through all files in a project or solution.
Save this code as a .vb file and import it into your VS Macros.

CodeRush's approach to this kind of fix is more of an interactive process.
Which is to say you have to physically be in the location of the variable whose name you wish to change and you have to change each one individually.
That said, there is a very powerful engine under CodeRush called the DXCore, which can be used to create a very wide variety of functionality. Indeed it is this layer on which the whole of CodeRush and RefactoPro are built.
I have no doubt that it could be used to create the functionality you are after. However I doubt that you would use the existing rename technology. I will have to look into this a little further, but I am optimistic about being able to produce something.
This feature is introduced in resharper 9 as explained here, Now you can apply re-factoring in scope, file, project or solution.
