Setting a Delta

From the Delta Browser, the Set command from the Delta menu enables you to set the selected delta to the current delta.

The Set command is enabled only when you select a delta that is not the current delta.

Methods that are checked out are checked out to the delta that is currently set. If no delta is set as the current delta, no methods can be checked in or out.

To set a delta as the current delta

  1. In the Delta Browser, select the delta that you want to set as the current delta.

  2. Select the Set command from the Delta menu.

Double-click on a delta in the Delta Browser to quickly set it to the current delta.

A gray arrow is then displayed in the Set column of the selected delta in the Delta Browser, indicating that it is the current delta. That delta remains the current delta until another is set.

When a delta is set, the delta text display on the right of the JADE development environment toolbar is drawn in red. When you double‑click on this delta text description, the Delta Browser is displayed.
