Replace_It! Copyright ⌐ 1995-1996 Digital Processes
WHAT IT DOES:
Replace_It! searches for and replaces (or deletes) multiple text strings
in multiple files. Great for updating entire projects in one pass for any
programming language which uses ASCII text files to store source code. It
also replaces or deletes strings in Delphi .DFM binary files for transparent
component swapping.
Several predefined replacement lists are included to beautify Pascal,
PowerBuilder and SQL source code. One list allows for quick and simple
conversion from Delphi database components to InfoPower components.
Replace_It! also performs find only searches and ASCII hex dumps of binary
files.
Use it to:
1. Rename - change object, function, procedure, variable and key word names
(any string within a line of code or text may be found and
replaced by a new string)
2. Delete - delete any string within a line of code or text
3. Find - find only mode produces a detailed listing of all occurrences
found by filename, line and position (offset in binary files)
4. Beautify - change programming language reserved words to all upper case,
all lower case or lower case with first char of each word
capitalized (these are built-in default replacement lists).
5. Component Swap - in Delphi to change a component to an enhanced descendant
component. This eliminates having to physically remove the
ancestor, replace it with the descendant and set the
properties all over again. Where one component used to be
the new one appears! This is by far the greatest time saving
feature of Replace_It! (there is a built-in replacement list
for converting a database project over to InfoPower
components)
PROCESSING OPTIONS:
1. Verify each replace, even in Delphi .DFM files, on an item by item basis.
2. Limit search to whole words only on an item by item basis.
3. Make search case sensitive or insensitive on an item by item basis.
4. Delete rather than replace a string being searched for on an item by item
basis.
5. Generate ASCII readable HEX dump files from binary files.
6. Search and replace or delete strings in Delphi binary .DFM files.
7. Prevent replacement within commented source code.
WHY YOU WOULD WANT TO USE IT:
Replace_It! can easily pay for itself after the first use on many medium to
large sized projects which spans many source code files.
Delphi / InfoPower Example:
Try converting a multi form generic Delphi database project over to one using
InfoPower database components. It could take all day by hand but by using
Replace_It! the whole process takes less than 15 minutes because Replace_It!
also searches and replaces strings in Delphi .DFM binary files! For example,
after you let Replace_It! replace a Delphi TTable component with an InfoPower
TwwTable component you will see a TwwTable component on the form where a
Ttable component used to be!
SQL Example:
Consider searching for and replacing (changing) a stored procedure name
referenced in hundreds of SQL stored procedure and trigger source code files.
Replace_It! can do it in less than 10 minutes and you'll be sure you didn't
miss a single reference.
WHAT YOU WILL RECEIVE IF YOU REGISTER:
You will receive printed installation instructions, a User Manual in .WRI
format, tech support via CompuServe Email and the full implementation of the
latest version of Replace_It! which includes the ability to search for and
replace strings in Delphi .DFM binary files. You will also be entitled to
upgrade to new versions of Replace_It! for considerably less than the price
of a first time registration.
