Displaying the Java source code
When you select a symbol in the Project Symbols pane, its Java™ source code is displayed in the source code viewer in the bottom-center pane of the Symbol Compiler window.
The class tree view
To the left of the source code viewer, a tree shows the different parts of the symbol class.
When you click a node in the tree, the source code viewer shows you the corresponding source.
The source code viewer provides you with incremental search facilities.
To search for a text:
1. Click the source code viewer to put the keyboard focus on it.
2. Type the search string.
A Searching field displays the character sequence you are searching for and the first occurrence found is highlighted in the code viewer.
To remove the last entered characters from the search text:
*Type Backspace.
To exit search mode and empty the Searching field:
*Type Esc.
NOTE The search is case sensitive.
The source code viewer allows you to quickly reach a specific line of code.
To access a specific line of code:
1. Click the source code viewer to put the keyboard focus on it.
2. Type Ctrl+L.
A text field appears at the bottom of the source code viewer.
