Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 9, 2017 #1 The next version of B4J (and all other B4X tools) will include the very first refactoring feature: Rename To. It makes it simple to rename global and local variables, subs and type fields. It works as an extension to the useful Find All References tool. First you find the references and then you can rename the identifier name: It will correctly change the name in all relevant modules. Another new feature is the ability to replace from the Quick Search tool. The idea is similar, you search for something and see all results and then you can then replace them: You can choose whether to replace in the current selected text, current module or all modules.

Rusty Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Apr 22, 2017 #22 No problem...thanks for replying and trying... I hope Erel gets it into the B4a environment soon. It's badly needed since I often use poor/inconsistent names and later wish to rename Rusty Upvote 0

Well, Erel should not implement this feature; this way you will be "forced" to use good names (I'm kidding... this feature is very useful). Last edited: Apr 22, 2017 Upvote 0
