Can the autotext (or anything else) be bent to create an appropriate switch statement over all enums in an definition?

i.e. going from

quote:
enum EFoo
{
fooA = 17
fooB = 20,
fooC
};

to

quote:
switch (foo)
{
case fooA: break;
case fooB: break;
case fooC: break;
default: break;
}

I believe you can do this with IDE Snippets in C#, but I am not sure of the exact details off hand. The IDE does not offer this feature in C++.

We are considering adding this ability to VA:

case=19137

For now you might be able to do something with an IDE macro, or perhaps something with a regular expression search and replace to turn the enum items into a switch statement. I know this is not ideal, but it might be worth looking at if you do this a lot.
