There are many ways to find a feature in a class. In particular :
|
||||
* You can use the [[Feature tool|feature tool]] and search the tree by expanding feature clauses. This tool, however, displays only the features that are defined or redefined in the current class text. If you do not know if the feature is inherited or not, you may therefore not find what you are looking for with this method.
|
||||
* You can also use the [[Class formatters: Introduction|class tab]] in the context tool. It will allow you to see all the [[Attributes| attributes]] or [[Routines|routines]] , or all the [[Exported features|public features]] for instance. If you do not know if the feature you seek is an attributes or a function and if it is public, this may not be the right method either.
|
||||
* You can also use the [[Class views|class tab]] in the context tool. It will allow you to see all the [[Attributes| attributes]] or [[Routines|routines]] , or all the [[Exported features|public features]] for instance. If you do not know if the feature you seek is an attributes or a function and if it is public, this may not be the right method either.
|
||||
* If you know the name or a part of the name of the feature you are looking for, the easier and faster way will probably be to use the [[Main address bar|address bar]] . If you type this name in the feature field of the bar (using "*" and "?" wildcards if you want to), the editor will be centered on the right class if necessary (i.e. if the feature is inherited) and scroll to the position of the text of the feature.

Every class in your system inherits from <eiffel>ANY</eiffel>. <eiffel>INTEGER</eiffel>, like other classes that represent basic types, is very often a supplier of the classes the user wrote. It may therefore not be interesting to display classes such as <eiffel>ANY</eiffel> or <eiffel>INTEGER</eiffel> in [[Diagram tool: Introduction|BON diagrams]] .
|
||||
EiffelStudio allows you to customize a list of classes that it has to ignore when it creates diagrams. This list is stored in the [[EiffelStudio preferences: Introduction|preferences]] . To modify it, first open the [[Preference window overview|preferences window]] by choosing '''Preferences...''' in the '''Tools''' menu. Select then the "context tool" sub-category of the "Tools" category in the preferences tree. On the right, you will then see a table of preferences, which includes "Show ALL classes in the diagram" and "Names of classes that should not appear in generated diagrams". If "Show ALL classes in the diagram" is not False, click on it and set it to False. Then click on "Names of classes that should not appear in generated diagrams" and edit the list. Class names must be separated by semicolons.

To do so, make sure that supplier links are shown in the diagram (if [[Image:diagram-supplier-link-icon]] is not pressed, click it).
