RTC Server Design Search view

This view displays the results of the instance search requested from the RTC Server Design Search or RTC Server Advanced Design Search tab. To open this view, click search in the toolbar button or the Search menu).

The search result is the same, whatever the content of your workspace, since the search is carried out on the server. The instances which match the search criteria are found, even if they have not been downloaded.

The view lists the instances found. It also includes the generated COBOL files in which the string has been found.

You can modify their display. To do so, click the white upside-down triangle icon (View menu) of the view toolbar and select:
  • Top-level elements to indicate which element type constitutes the top of the hierarchy in the tree: folders (by default, the folders are the entity types), packages or projects.
  • Sort to specify a new sort criterion: by name, package or project.
  • Display to display additional information about each instance line in the tree: package, project, label. You can combine the three choices. If you want to remove one of the selected information from the line, select it again in the menu.
This new setting is then automatically saved and associated with this view, until you change it again.
If you right-click an instance in the list, you can:
  • Open its editor or COBOL file.
  • Load the required projects for this design instance. You can then limit the number of the componenets to be loaded into your local workspace in order to be able to work on the instance.
  • Search for its super or sub Server references, which are then displayed in the RTC Server References view.
  • Go to the next match, that is highlight the next instance in the list (also available with the next match Toolbar button in the view),
  • Go to the previous match, to highlight the previous instance in the list (also available with the previous match toolbar button in the view),
  • Remove the selected matches, to remove all the selected instances from the view (also available with the Remove selected matches toolbar button in the view),
  • Remove all matches, to remove all search result from the view (also available with the Remove all matches toolbar button in the view),
You can also perform the following actions from the toolbar only:
  • Run the current search again (Run the current search again). This command runs the current search again, so that the removed search results reappear or changes are reflected.
  • Cancel the current search (Cancel current search).
  • Show the previous searches (Show previous searches). Click this command to see the previous searches and to run one of them again.
    • If you select a previous search, its result is displayed in the view.
    • If you select the History choice, you open a window which shows the 10 previous searches (by default). In this window, you can select a previous search to view its results or remove it from the history. You can also configure the number the previous searches displayed in the history.
    • If you select Clear History, all the previous searches are removed from the history.
  • Expand all (Expand all icon). This command expands every tree item in this view.
  • Collapse all (Collapse all icon) This command collapses every tree item in this view.
