Code browser

Code browsers of the Wx interface provide the following:

  • Erlang syntax highlight
  • Line numbers
  • Position based semantic queries (with predefined queries based on the starting position of the query and its context)
  • Content updated on database change

Position based semantic queries

In a code browser, semantic queries can be started from a specific position by clicking on a token in the code text. A "query bubble" appears with a query textbox (with autocomplete), a "Run query" button and predefined queries (if available). When clicking the run button or a predefined query, the result will be calculated and shown in the "Queries" tab ("Last results" subtab).
