source code to HTML

Introduction

I sometimes need to post my cpp source code to the BBS. Because the BBS removes all html tag and encloses pre tag. I need to do following routine work

• duplicate source code of the selected area 
• replace html escape charactors ("<", ">", "&")
• untabify (replace TAB to Equivalent spaces)

So I write a macro for VisualStudio.NET. This is simple but convenient tool for me.

Usage

It's very easy. Select the source code area you want to convert and call this macro. Then converted code was pasted to clipboard.

Code

    Sub Src2Html()
        DTE.UndoContext.Open("ToHTML")
        Try
            DTE.Find.Target = vsFindTarget.vsFindTargetCurrentDocumentSelection
            DTE.Find.MatchCase = True
            DTE.Find.MatchWholeWord = False
            DTE.Find.MatchInHiddenText = False
            DTE.Find.PatternSyntax = vsFindPatternSyntax.vsFindPatternSyntaxLiteral
            DTE.Find.ResultsLocation = vsFindResultsLocation.vsFindResultsNone
            DTE.Find.Action = vsFindAction.vsFindActionReplaceAll

            DTE.Find.FindWhat = "&"
            DTE.Find.ReplaceWith = "&"
            DTE.Find.Execute()

            DTE.Find.FindWhat = "<"
            DTE.Find.ReplaceWith = "&lt;"
            DTE.Find.Execute()

            DTE.Find.FindWhat = ">"
            DTE.Find.ReplaceWith = "&gt;"
            DTE.Find.Execute()

            DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.Untabify()
            DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.Copy()
        Finally
            DTE.UndoContext.Close()
            DTE.ActiveDocument.Undo()
        End Try

    End Sub
