Rational Developer for System z, Version 7.5

Changing a view

A library view is a filter through which you can see the information of the working library. When you connect to a Pacbase database via a connection repository, you must choose between different views. The type of view is displayed in the status bar, located at the bottom of the workbench. You can easily change it in the Library Manager view displayed in a dedicated tab.

The default view is 'A' (current and above with doubles), i.e. the instances displayed belong to the selected library and its parent libraries. If duplicates are found, only those from the dependent library are displayed.

To change a view, do as follows:

  1. Open the Library Manager view via the following menus Window > Show views > Library manager in the workbench's toolbar.
  2. Click on one of the icons displayed on the upper right-hand corner of the view, or another way to change the library view is to click the downward arrow in the Library View's toolbar beside the view icons, and to choose the Select library vision mode menu. A wizard opens where you can also select a view in a dropdown list.
Each time you change a view, the Pacbase explorer view is automatically refreshed and displays the list of the instances associated with the new view.
An example of view change:
Theinitial view was 'Z' current and lower with doubles
The new view is now 'C' current and above with doubles

In the Pacbase explorer view, you can see the new view type 'C' displayed beside the connection repository name.
