IFileDocument.ReplaceAllS Method

Automation:

ulong ReplaceAllS ( [in] ISequence pSequenceFrom, [in] ISequence pSequenceTo, [in] bool ignore_case, [in] IMultiSelection pSelection) ;

Native (C++):

HRESULT ReplaceAllS ( [in] ISequence * pSequenceFrom, [in] ISequence * pSequenceTo, [in] BOOL ignore_case, [in] IMultiSelection * pSelection, [out, retval] unsigned __int64 * pReplaced) ;

Parameters

pSequenceFromSequence object containing a find pattern.pSequenceToSequence object containing a replace pattern.ignore_caseTrue to ignore case, False to perform exact matchingpSelectionMultiple Selection object, describing the ranges in which to perform search and replacepReplacedPointer to a variable that receives the number of replacements done.

Return Value

Automation:A number of replacements done.Native: S_OK or standard OLE error code.

Remarks

Finds and replaces all occurrences of the given pattern with another pattern. Complexity: varying.

This method is a replacement for IFileDocument.ReplaceAll when used in scripting languages.

Examples

Searching all pattern occurrences

JavascriptCopy Code

var fdoc = new ActiveXObject("FileDocument.FileDocument");
var msel = fdoc.CreateEmptySelection();

fdoc.Open("c:\\temp\\file.txt");
msel.AddRange(0, fdoc.FileSize);  // We'll be searching in a whole file

var pattern1 = fdoc.CreateSequence();
var pattern2 = fdoc.CreateSequence();
pattern1.AddData(HexBytes, 0x0d, 0x0a); // EOL pattern
pattern2.AddData(HexBytes, 0x0d, 0x0a, 0x0d, 0x0a); // Double-EOL pattern
var nReplacements = fdoc.ToNumber(fdoc.ReplaceAllS(pattern1, pattern2, false, msel);
