Version Wizard

Overview

A straight forward search and replace based on a regular expression to update a release version. Some deployment environments make use of regional caching systems and load balancers, which can make updates and maintenance a nightmare as the website is cached server-side. A simple version number embedded in your SWF can make all the difference and save time in determining the version of the SWF you are looking at.

Input Fields explained

Target
The target file, folder or wildcard string.

  • File: A single file to search and replace the string for
  • Folder: A project folder or subfolder in the current workspace
  • Wildcard: Search for all occurences within the current workspace. Note: This will search through all projects in the workspace and may search and replace strings in other projects. Use with care.

Regex
A Regular Expression to search for. The example above searches for major.minor.bugfix numbers, i.e. 0.8.3.200911261311 and replaces it with 0.1.qualifier where qualifier takes the value defined by the Version Wizard's preferences. The word 'qualifier' is a replacement token and can be substituted for a date, integer or subversion repo head number. This can be decided within the Version Wizard's Preferences.
