Question

I’ve got some code I’m maintaining that has a good deal of machine generated comments and machine generated regions. (or created by a particularly misled developer)

These are comments exclusively repeating the method metadata and space expansions of pascal cased names:

#region methods
/// <summary>
/// Implementation of a public method foo bar, returning a void
/// </summary>
/// <param name="value">A string parameter named value input</param>
public void fooBar(string valueInput)
{

}
#endregion

Is there a plug in or feature of Resharper for stripping out the comments and #region tags in bulk?

Answer 1

Why not use the regex find & replace in Visual Studio?

For triple slash comments:

    ///.*

For region tags:

    [#]region.*
    [#]endregion
