使用正则表达式进行查找、替换

一般代码编辑器都提供基于正则表达式的查找、替换功能。但支持的标准有所差异，下面举例说明在VS中的实际应用。
Example 1:
source code:

Assert.AreEqual(null, property._AcquiredDate);
Assert.AreEqual(null, property._AcreageNumber);

aim style:

property._AcquiredDate = null;
property._AcreageNumber = null;

Select "Use regular expressions"
Find what: Assert\.AreEqual\({[^,]+}, {[^\)]+}\);
Replace with: \2 = \1;
如果你想反向替换，也就是把上面的结果替换为最上面的代码，这时候，
Find what: {[^:b=]*}:b*=:b*{[^;]*};”，
Replace with: Assert.AreEqual(\2, \1);”。

Example 2:
source code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Topic>
  <Issue></Issue>
  <TopicPic></TopicPic>
</Topic>

aim style:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Topic>
  <Issue>{$Issue$}</Issue>
  <TopicPic>{$TopicPic$}</TopicPic>
</Topic>

Select "Use regular expressions"
Find what: \<{.*}\>\<\/{.*}\>
Replace with: \<\1\>\{\$\1\$\}\<\/\1\>
