- Code Stylist/VB -- Making you source code looks its best...
-
-
- Have you had to code quickly to meet a deadline? Or perhaps you work with
- a team of programmers, each with their own unique style? Or maybe you've
- inherited the source code from hell? If you program for a living, chances
- are you have had to look at some interesting source code. So what can be
- done to make your life as a programmer easier? Use the Code Stylist/VB on
- all of your Visual Basic 3.0 projects.
-
- Code Stylist/VB is a source code formatting tool for Microsoft Visual Basic.
- Within a matter of minutes, Code Stylist/VB allows you to specify your
- personal or company standard formatting preferences, process and format
- all of the source code, and save the new clean code into a new directory.
- It will even spell check your code and allow you to see all changes in a
- side-by-side code comparison.
-
-
-
- Code Stylist/VB includes:
-
-
- Automatic Insertion of Option Explicit
-
-
- Line splitting of:
- Single line If Then statements
- Multiple Dim as statements
- Multiple Const statements
- Multiple Statements separated by :'s
-
-
- Indentation
-
- Formatting of all control statements allowing the for varying spaces per
- each indent. For example,
-
-
- For x = 1 To 100
- Debug.Print x
- Next x
-
-
- becomes
-
-
- For x = 1 To 100
- Debug.Print x
- Next
-
-
- Comments
-
- Choose from over 10 options for single line comments and end of statement
- comments. These options include placement of any the comments and creating
- comment block lines to block off large numbers of comments in a row. This
- makes reading code much easier.
-
-
- Comment Headers in Functions and Subs
-
- Create a common header for all procedures and functions. Imagine having the
- following inserted before or after all of your subroutine declarations:
-
-
- ' -----------------------------------------------------------
- ' Name : CenterForm
- ' Author : Your Name Here
- ' Date : 12/12/95
- ' Params : aForm as Form
- ' Purpose:
- '
- ' DATE WHO WHAT
- ' -------- ---------- --------------------------------------
- '
- ' -----------------------------------------------------------
-
-
-
- Blank Lines
-
- Creating the spacing look you desire to make reading through the code
- and conducting code reviews a painless process.
-
-
-
- Spell Checking
-
- Spell Check all the literals and/or the comments in the code.
-
-
-
- Instant reporting
-
- With the Integrated Visual Difference Engine, a project manager can easily
- see where changes were made
-
-
-
- Flexibility
-
- One of The Code Stylist's greatest features is it's flexibility. Each
- option is configurable by itself or as a group. This gives the programmer
- total control over how they want the code to turn out. It makes creating
- and conforming to project standards a snap.
