After spending way too much time doing this manually, this idea came to be. I use this extraordinarily frequently, so thought someone else might one day have a use for it. The title pretty much sums it up; here's some notes:
-Automatically detects if typedef struct or typedef enum
-Types support automatic variable type changing and have the most common ones built in (e.g. DWORD = Long, LPSTR = String)
-Arrays are supported for types, both when defined by number var[10]->var(0 To 9) and by variable, var[MAX_PATH]->var(0 To (MAX_PATH - 1))
-Comments have the option to be included or removed
-Enums that don't have an = sign (sequential) are supported, both with and without an initial entry with =0 or =1
-Option for public or private
-Option to remove 'tag' in names
-Various automatic syntax corrections
Samples
Those two really show it all...
(the VB output is properly indented, can't see it here)
I might change this into an add-in that could do convert-on-paste or convert from the right click menu, if anyone is interested in that let me know.
NOTE: I believe the people who would use a tool like this would also not need extensive documentation of the code or e.g. not be ok with the only way to add type replacements being to add another line in a function... this isn't for beginners so don't be too harsh about the cryptic code :)
Also, I rely on VB to do things like correct the case of native data types (long isn't replaced with Long), and change &H0001 to &H1; it's not worth doing manually.
If anyone is interested I also have a utility that will turn a UUID into a IID_IWhatever function like the ones in mIID.bas in oleexp.
PS- Don't actually use that SMDATA type; I altered it to show features.
