CCS 5.3 search and replace within project including headers

Amiram Frish

It seems I can no longer search and replace in the entire project.

I have recently deleted all previous installation and deleted all related folders, and installed the latest CCS v5.3

I am working on Windows7 64 bit.

If I use Ctrl+H -> C/C++ search, then the search is on the entire project showing matches also from the headers .h, but I don't see the replace button!

If I use Ctrl+H -> File search, then I have a replace button but the search is no longer show matches from the headers .h !!!

Tried workspace, working set, enclosing poject ... nothing seems to work.

What do I do ?

Amiram,

Ctrl+H opens the following dialog box.

One you press the button "Replace" it will do a search in all the specified files and paths and will prompt for the replacement string.

How was i not clear ...

"If I use Ctrl+H -> File search, then I have a replace button but the search is no longer show matches from the headers .h !!!'

The file search does not find .h files that are found by the include search paths! so it does not replace text in .h files

Amiram,

In the file pattern dialog box write *.c , *.h, *.cpp , all file patterns which you want to search as shown.
