Re: no more Macros for VS2012!

[Wallace Turner]

Jano, Resharper also fixes the problem if you use Code Cleanup (Ctrl-E, C)
and select the default profile 'Reformat Code'

It will remember your last profile so you can quickly run it, allbeit with
a few more keys.

I have ctrl+q (in editor) do the following.

Reformat, order usings, and close the file.

Hi Jano,

 

I use CTRL + E, D ("Format Document" under Edit > Advanced menu in VS2010) -
this should remove any trailing whitespace from all lines as well as format
the file as per the formatting settings you have set under Tools > Options
>Text Editor.

 

Cheers,

Mark.

Well, I do have one usage of macros - to strip off trailing whitespace from
all lines in a code file. I have mapped it to Ctrl-W and using it all the
time. 

Is there a built-in command that can do this now? If not, I will be
affected, and will need to do something about it.

Are any of you guys using something similar to perform this? Or hanging
whitespace at the end of lines does not bother you ?

Hi Wallace,

I am not aware of any shortcut key that would move cursor to the last
character (ignoring whitespace) at the end of the line.

As for the macro, here it is. It basically does regex find/replace on
current file:


Option Strict Off
Option Explicit Off
Imports System
Imports EnvDTE
Imports EnvDTE80
Imports EnvDTE90
Imports EnvDTE90a
Imports EnvDTE100
Imports System.Diagnostics

Public Module UtilityMacros

Sub RemoveWhitespaceAtEndOfLines()
DTE.Find.PatternSyntax =
vsFindPatternSyntax.vsFindPatternSyntaxRegExpr
DTE.Find.Action = vsFindAction.vsFindActionReplaceAll
DTE.Find.FindWhat = ":b+$"
DTE.Find.ReplaceWith = ""
DTE.Find.Target = vsFindTarget.vsFindTargetCurrentDocument
DTE.Find.MatchCase = False
DTE.Find.MatchWholeWord = False
DTE.Find.MatchInHiddenText = False
DTE.Find.ResultsLocation = vsFindResultsLocation.vsFindResultsNone

If (DTE.Find.Execute() = vsFindResult.vsFindResultNotFound) Then
DTE.StatusBar.Text = "Not found any trailing whitespaces"
Else
DTE.StatusBar.Text = "Removed all trailing whitespaces"
End If
End Sub
End Module

Re: no more Macros for VS2012!

[Wallace Turner]

Jano,
Initially i thought you mean the trailing whitespace at the *end* of the 
file, and thought that was seriously OCD (which is a feature in my books!)


however re-reading I now know what you mean and YES it bothers me all 
the time... in fact, can you please send me your macro?


Is the main annoyance that when you press the 'End' key the cursor 
doesnt go the end of the text, rather than the end of the line? If yes, 
is there a shortcut key that goes to the last character on the line? (in 
VS, not vi please) :)

You can still write Visual Studio extensibility code, which can use the same

You can vote on it on uservoice :
http://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/121579-visual-studio/suggestions/2650757-bring-back-macros

Also note you can still extend the IDE and write add-ins: it's not a RAD as 
macros though and there's no macro recording. So not as easy to write them or 
discover, but if you have existing macros it shouldn't be that hard to wrap 
them into a package. 

Definitely vote for it if it impacts you: add your voice !
