Cross-references in the code editor

Overview

The cross-references in the code editor are used to identify:

the codes calling the element currently selected in the code editor.
the codes called by the element currently selected in the code editor.

This element can be a control, a window, a procedure, a class method, a WLanguage function , ...

How to?

Displaying the cross-references of an element

To display the cross-references of an element (control, window, procedure, WLanguage function, ...) found in the code editor:

Position the mouse cursor on the element name.
Use:
- the key combination Shift + F2.
- "Cross-references" in the context menu.
The list of cross-references is displayed.

Configuring the display options of cross-references

The display options of the cross-references can be configured in the window for displaying cross-references ("Display options").

It is possible to list the following elements:

References of source code: these references can correspond to:
- the uses of the element in the code. In this case, the reference is automatically listed as soon as the name of the element is used.
- the modifications of the element only. In this case, only the code lines in which the element is modified are listed.
- the call to the procedures (for the local or global procedures). Only the calls to the procedures are listed.
References of element: internal window or page, template, ..., i.e. the windows, internal pages or ou templates that use the element.
Links , for controls linked to data files and items in the analysis.
Shared information of the analysis, for controls linked to items.
Links from the flexible models (for example, if the window is used in a flexible model).
