In a previous post I wrote about switching between header and impl files in .NET, and I referred you to a codeproject page with some VB script that does the switching. The code on codeproject assumes that the files reside in the same directory, which isn’t always the case. Here’s some slightly improved code.. It fits my needs anyways.. 🙂

Option Strict Off
Option Explicit Off

Imports EnvDTE
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic

Public Module Switch

    Sub Switch()
        Dim a As String
        Dim b As String
        Dim Flag As Integer
        Flag = 0
        a = DTE.ActiveDocument.Name()
        tmp = InStr(a, ".cpp")
        If tmp Then
            b = Left(a, Len(a) - 3) + "h"
            Flag = 1
        Else

            tmp = InStr(a, ".hh")
            If tmp Then
                b = Left(a, Len(a) - 2) + "cc"
                Flag = 1
            Else

                tmp = InStr(a, ".cc")
                If tmp Then
                    b = Left(a, Len(a) - 2) + "hh"
                    Flag = 1
                Else
                    tmp = InStr(a, ".h")
                    If tmp Then
                        b = Left(a, Len(a) - 1) + "cpp"
                        Flag = 1
                    End If
                End If

            End If
        End If


        If Flag Then
            DTE.Solution.FindProjectItem(b).Open()
        End If
    End Sub
End Module
