Rename all function references

[madk]

Hello,

 

I'm got a client running some code that contains a function called date_format. We are porting over to PHP 5 and now PHP5 has it's own date_format function.  I am looking for a script that will parse all php files and rename any references to the function call.

 

Just wondering if anyone has an code I could look at so I don't recreate the wheel.

 

Thanks in advance.

A lot of programming editors, like notepad++, have a search/replace function that operates on all files within a selected folder.

Are the changes going to be made on linux or windows?

 

With Linux you can just use the "sed" command.  Works great with regular expressions.

 

With windows there are find/replace programs that may be suitable.  Or you can use Cygwin, which should support the "sed" command.

 

Good luck!

It'll be on Linux but I have to deploy it across about 15 sites on separate servers, which is why I'm looking for a script that I can just call easily. I'll look into the sed command.

I have to do that sort of stuff every time when take over a new site so I know what a pain it is but Notepad++ can hold open a good 500 pages throw wine at the same time and open 50 pages at once at the same time use that and then replace all on open doc's job done !
