Tool for renaming the resource keys and their occurences in the source files

Question

Is there any Workaround/Tool for renaming the Resource Keys from the resource file .

I also need to replace all such occurences in the source code with my new (renamed resource key).

Is there any tool available to automate this task.?

Could someone put in some thoughts on this.?

thanks, vijay

Answer 1

What is the problem with find/replace ???

Answer 2

I think that the latest version of Resharper provides some resource refactoring tools. There is also a tool called RGreatEx you might want to have a look at.

Answer 3

You probably realize this, but the resx files are simple xml docs. You can open them in your favorite text editor and edit with find/replace, regular expression, vim, keyboard macro's. I doesn't give you a one stop shop to rename resources in the resx and the code at the same time, but might still be a viable option
