With the Browser, you can look at your source code in many different ways:
- List program objects by type (for example, all classes), by content (members of a class), or by components (all files)
- View relationships between program components graphically, such as class-inheritance hierarchies, function calls, and included files
- View and edit the actual source code associated with a selected program element using an editor. By default, the Browser uses the VisualAge Editor, but you can select to use a different editor by changing your IBM WorkFrame project settings
- View online documentation for a class or class member
The Browser has a List Window container view which contains a list which can be expanded. You can order a container view to list program elements by class, type, or access permission.
A History window provides a quick way to redo previously invoked object-action pairs. This is useful if you have the contents of a List or Graph window, and no longer have direct access to the object.
From the Browser Project pulldown menu, you can perform other programming tasks or launch other VisualAge for C++ tools.
The Browser provides C/C++ keyword help. Select the object in the Browser List or Graph window and use the Ctrl+H key combination to launch a search for the keyword in the online information.
