Fixes #12147.

Summary

  • Nest operation-specific paging helpers inside their owning client and emit them together in <ClientName>.Collections.cs, following option 2 discussed in the issue. ClientProvider.CollectionResultProviders lazily creates and caches this partial declaration.
  • Simplify helper names to <OperationName>[Async]CollectionResult[OfT], without a redundant client-name prefix or original-name fallback. Resolve same-client normalized-name and sync/async collisions in input operation order: keep the first name unchanged, then append 2, 3, etc. For example, two operations normalized to GetAll produce GetAllCollectionResult and GetAllCollectionResult2.
  • Traverse nested helpers in library visitors and dependency analysis, preserving downstream customization and response models referenced only by helper bodies. Omit the implementation-only collections partial from public API stubs.
  • Preserve reference-based pruning: client ownership alone does not retain paging helpers. Resolve handwritten references within their containing type, remove unused helpers and otherwise-unreferenced dependencies with RemoveOrInternalize, and skip removed nested types during emission. Preserve existing ownership-based retention for other nested types and keepAll behavior.
  • Disable duplicate compatibility-overload synthesis in the collections partial. Propagate client name and namespace updates to the collections partial and cached nested helpers while retaining visitor constructor customizations.
  • Document provider ownership and naming; add regression coverage for collisions, long operation names, nested member visitation, dependency retention and pruning, compatibility overloads, and cached identity updates; regenerate the checked-in sample output and update helper-name fixtures.

Generated SDK public APIs and paging iteration logic are unchanged. Internal helper names and qualified locations change with the nested layout.

Validation

  • C# emitter/generator build passed.
  • Core generator suite: 2,919 passed, rerun after the pruning fix.
  • Client-model suite: 2,479 passed after the pruning fix, using a temporary short Windows drive mapping to avoid existing fixture path limitations. The four pruning cases also passed after extending coverage to same-named helpers in another client.
  • Regenerated local sample suite: 730 passed, rerun after the latest fixes; regeneration produced no additional checked-in output changes.
  • Full C# regeneration completed for the initial nested layout; the affected local sample was regenerated and rebuilt after subsequent changes. The full generated pageable Spector SDK was also built successfully for net8.0 with the initial nested layout and emitted five per-client collections files instead of per-operation files.
  • New compatibility, cached-identity, and pruning regressions were observed failing before implementation and passing after the fixes.
  • Cop checks, repository-configured Oxlint, and root pnpm format passed after the latest changes.

Spector HTTP runtime integration tests were not run.

What changed in this PR

Addresses #12147 by nesting C# paging helpers inside their owning clients, reducing filename length and separating helper names across clients.

Changes:

  • Groups helpers into per-client .Collections.cs files with deterministic collision suffixes.
  • Extends visitor and dependency traversal to nested helpers and excludes collections partials from API stubs.
  • Adds regression coverage, updates fixtures, and regenerates sample output.

Medium severity Preserve namespace-relative qualified nested references during pruning

packages/​http-client-csharp/​generator/​Microsoft.TypeSpec.Generator/​src/​ReferenceMap/​ProviderReferenceMapAnalyzer.Helpers.cs:776

With RemoveOrInternalize, suppressing the generated paging methods and referencing new TestClient.GetItemsCollectionResult(client, options) from another handwritten type in namespace Sample still removes the helper: NamedTypeSymbolProvider.cs:690–699 records the relative qualifier as namespace TestClient, but AddNamespaceBodyDependencyType only performs scoped lookup for empty namespaces. Resolve namespace-relative qualified nested references too, and add a pruning regression so this valid custom code does not fail with CS0426.

Review summary: two P2 correctness issues remain in the current diff:

  • Nested replacement providers lose their members. LibraryVisitor.cs:90 now calls VisitTypeCore, which traverses the original provider's members and overwrites those on the replacement returned by VisitType. Traverse the returned provider and add a replacement-provider regression. Existing discussion.
  • Paging helpers can collide with client methods. CollectionResultDefinition.cs:198 checks only helper-to-helper collisions. Pageable GetItems alongside a regular GetItemsCollectionResult operation produces a nested type and method with the same name (CS0102). This limitation has been acknowledged and explicitly deferred. Existing discussion.

No additional high-confidence findings from the review. These summarize the existing threads rather than duplicate inline comments.

With removeOrInternalize, placing global using static Sample.TestClient; in a separate Usings.cs causes a handwritten factory’s new GetItemsCollectionResult(...) to lose its referenced helper and fail compilation, because GetNamespaceCandidates only reads imports from the current syntax tree. Please include compilation-wide global imports, resolving each with its own semantic model, and add a two-file regression alongside SuppressedPagingMethodsPruneUnreferencedHelpers.

ℹ️ Fixed in d9c71ac. Namespace candidates now include global imports from the other syntax trees in the compilation, with each directive resolved using its own tree’s semantic model. Added a two-file regression with a global static import in Usings.cs; it verifies that the referenced helper survives pruning without retaining another client’s same-named helper. A negative case checks that an ordinary, non-global static import in another file does not leak into the factory’s scope. Both cases also cover keepAll.

ℹ️ We cannot use Client.CanonicalView.Methods here: it builds Client.Methods, which builds the paging helpers and re-enters this name allocation. The current reservation combines generated field/property names, input service-method names (sync and async), the client name, and all handwritten member names from its Roslyn symbol. That already covers custom fields/properties as well as methods and nested types, so we are keeping this logic rather than switching views.
