Hey sorry I didn't see this thread earlier.
Anthony, CFEclipse has it built-in to create a closing tag when you
write an opening one. It also generally knows what tags can have a
closing /> and which ones it doesn't make sense to (<cfif/>) Another
partial replacement for this is the snippets in CFEclipse. I don't
know if you can get "<" to be a trigger, but you can try it. When you
make a new snippet, you can give it a shortcut, for instance, one of
mine:
type qp then hit ctrl+shift+. (period). Here's the code I use:
Opening:
<cfqueryparam value="#
Closing:
#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_$${CFSQL Type:varchar|numeric|date|bit}">
This pops up a dialog that asks you what datatype you want, hit ok and
it will place you where you need to type the value. There are some
very cool things you can do with this.
For the extended find & replace replacement, I think it's a little
better, at least for the true regular expression support. Here's how
you use it. Select a folder in your project, then click the yellow
flashlight on your toolbar. Type your search text and verify your file
name patters are what you want, choose where you want to search (I
almost always use "selected resources", which is the folder you
selected in the Navigator view), then click search or replace. The
replace is a little odd in that it runs a search first, then allows
you to replace when it finds everything. Your results will begin to
appear in the Search view (you may have to click 'run in background').
In this view, I've found it helps immensely to hit the down arrow and
use the "Flat Layout," which is more similar to homesite's veiw. Play
with it, you'll get used to it and like it. Maybe not necessarily much
better, but you will like it.
