Has anyone got an emacs regexp handy to do the following generic replacement?
(*ptr_to_struct).member_var to ptr_to_struct->member_var
where ptr_to_struct is any pointer to struct and member_var is any member variable
You can try to substitute
(\*\([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z_0-9]*\))\.\([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z_0-9]*\)with\1->\2, where:[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z_0-9]*catches the C identifier\(…\)record a match for substitutionYou can play with regular expression in Emacs using the integrated regexp builder: M-x
re-builder.
