Find Cross References Dialogue Box

Use this dialogue box to find snippets that are referenced by the currently selected snippet and / or those snippets that reference the snippet. The dialogue is displayed from the Search | Find Cross Refs menu option.

The dialogue enables two kinds of cross-references to be found:

1. Snippet dependencies, which are snippets that the selected snippet depends upon in order to compile. Alternatively the search can find snippets that depend on the selected one.
2. "See also" references, which are snippets that are related to the selected snippet conceptually. Such snippets are not necessarily needed to compile the selected snippet. Alternatively the search can find snippets that refer to the selected one as a "see also" snippet.

The search is customised by checking or clearing the following check boxes:

• Search for required snippets

  Selecting this option includes all snippets that the selected snippet depends upon in the search result.

  If the related Search recursively box is checked the search is applied recursively to all the found snippets.

• Search for snippets that depend on this one

  Choose this option to include in the search results all snippets that depend upon this one.

• Search for "see also" cross references

  This option includes all snippets referenced as "see also" in the search result.

  Checking the related Search recursively check box causes the search to recurse through all the found snippets' "see also" cross references.

• Search for snippets that cross-reference this one

  Choose this option to include all snippets that cross-reference this one in the search results.

• Include "xxxx" in search (where xxxx is the name of the selected snippet).

  Checking this box simply includes the selected snippet in the search results.

You must check at least one of the Search for required snippets or Search for "see also" cross references options.

Note: Snippets selected by the use of this dialogue box will replace any search results that were previously displayed. A message to this effect will be displayed in the dialogue box if it is opened while a previous search is active.
