Replace words + filename

#1 Replace words + filename

Posted by: Feavy | Date: 2018-02-26 19:36 | IP: IP Logged

Hello,

Is there any option to replace both words and filenames corresponding to a certain value in PSPAD?
Also, could you tell me why I can't manually rename filenames in a project (button is disabled).

Thank you smiling smiley

I am sorry, but I am afraid I don't understand you. What and where you want to rename?

Rename in the project isn't available in 5.0 version yet - I forget it. In 4.6 it should be available.

Sorry I'm french so I don't speak english very well.
Bu let me show you an example of what I want to do:

I have a file called "Main.java" which contains :

public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) {
// ...
}

I want to replace each occurrence of "Main" by "Foo" for example. Thus I will have a new file called "Foo.java" instead of "Main.java" which will contain :

public class Foo{

public static void main(String[] args) {
// ...
}

Is it possible to do this in PSPAD ?

If you want to replace all occurence in open file, use Replace dialog from Search menu
If you want to replace in files (e.g. all occurences in all files in folder), use Search/Replace in files from menu Search

Yes but filenames aren't changed with these tools. If I have a file called "Main.java" it will still be called "Main.java" even if I replace all occurrences of "Main" by others. It is my problem.

You can use the "Dublicate Document" script. Then replace and save with the new name.

If you will automate this you have to write your own script. E.g. "Duplicate and save with replacement".
