Remove all comments from VB.NET source code file

问题

Is there a macro in the Visual Studio editor to remove all comments from a VB.NET source file?

回答1:

Using menu Edit -> Find and Replace -> Quick Replace with Regular expressions

Find what: ^{.+}'.+$

Replace with: \1

will replace

text ' comment

to

text

EDIT*

http://bytes.com/topic/visual-basic-net/answers/579000-utility-remove-comments-vb-net-files

has some options.

such as

• write a VB.NET program to do it? should be easy: any line with a single quote as the first character should be removed. and everything AFTER a single quote (even if it's not the first character), provided the quote is not between a pair of double quotes. and the files you send to this program are any *.vb files.
• search and replace with a regular expression would probably be quickest.

回答3:

Find: ^{(([^"']*"[^"]*"[^"'])#|[^"']*)}'.*$

Replace with \1
will also work for stuff like this (SQL):

   cs = "INSERT INTO db (time, t1, t2) VALUES ('" & Time.ToString & "', NULL, '" & t2 & "')" ' COMMENT
