You can browse by resource to see a list of assemblies, procedure libraries, or paths as top-level nodes. When you expand the nodes, the ABL packages or .NET namespaces appear as second-level nodes. Expand these second-level nodes to see the third level of contents -- the types (the classes and/or interfaces).
You are not required to have an OpenEdge project available to browse by resource, which can be helpful if you are browsing external resources.
-
To begin, click Browse by Resource
on the Class Browser toolbar. A list of top-level resources, such as assemblies, procedure libraries, and paths, appears in the Browser pane, and the Content and Summary panes are empty.
-
You can view the second and third levels of a top-level resource in either of
the following ways:
- Click the name of the top-level resource in the Browser pane. Its second-level package or namespace nodes appear in a list in the Content pane; summary details about the resource appear in the Summary pane. Click a second-level package or namespace node in the Content pane to see details about it in the Summary pane.
- Expand the node of a top-level resource in the Browser pane. Its second-level package or namespace nodes appear below it in the Browser pane. Click the name of the package or namespace to view a list of its classes and interfaces in the Content pane; or expand the package or namespace to view the class and interface list in the Browser pane.
- Click the name of a class or interface in the Browser pane to see its members in the Content pane and its summary in the Summary pane.
