what's the best and quick way to remove all the wx_str and c_str preprocessor

(1/3) > >>

ollydbg:
We have many many code snippet like below:

--- Code: ---                #if wxCHECK_VERSION(2, 9, 0)
                Codef( _T("%AAppend(%t)"), ArrayChoices[i].wx_str());
                #else
                Codef( _T("%AAppend(%t)"), ArrayChoices[i].c_str());
                #endif

--- End code ---
I believe someone can create a simple find/replace script which can quickly replace those code snippet to:

--- Code: ---                Codef( _T("%AAppend(%t)"), ArrayChoices[i].wx_str());

--- End code ---



Which tool can be used to do this? I found that manually delete those lines are some dirty work. ;)

EDIT:
The match condition should be:

--- Code: ---                #if wxCHECK_VERSION(2, 9, 0)
                blablabla1
                #else
                blablabla2
                #endif

--- End code ---
The content of "blablabla1" and "blablabla2" should be the same only except the "wx_str" and "c_str".

Jenna:
Should be doable with regexes.

dmoore:
Yes, replace in files with regex will do this

Make sure you have "use advanced regexes" checked in editor settings.

Link to syntax is in my sig. Use \n where n is an integer corresponding to your unnamed groups in the replace string. I never got around to adding support for substituting named groups in C::B (but maybe someone else did)

Something like this (untested)


--- Code: ---#if WXCHECK_VERSION\(2\s*,9,\s*0\).*?\n(.*?)#else.*?#endif.*?\n

--- End code ---

replace with


--- Code: ---\1
--- End code ---

Edit: placement of spacing.

Thanks!!
There are some answers, but I'm going to test under C::B's own editor right now.
how to use regex to strip the preprocessor directive

Edit:
It looks like the same regex replacement rule works under notepad++ does not work under c::b. :(

dmoore:
For some reason the ".*" doesn't operate through line endings (this may have been intentional), so I had to use this:


--- Code: --- *#if wxCHECK_VERSION\(2\,\s*9\,\s*0\).*?\n(.*?)\n.*?#else\r?\n.*?\n.*?#endif(.*?)\n
--- End code ---

replacing with


--- Code: ---\1
--- End code ---

This allows at most one line of code between the #if, #else, and #endif lines.
