Removing a Method from a Method View

As a method removed from a method view is removed only from the method view, it is not deleted from the class in which it is defined and it remains in the Methods List of the Class Browser. (For details about removing a method from the JADE database, see "Removing a Schema Element", in Chapter 3.)

You can remove a method from a method view that you created or that was created by another developer.

To remove a method from a method view

  1. In the Methods Viewer window, perform one of the following actions.

    • If you want to remove a single method from the method view, select the method from the list at the left of the window.

      Repeat this action for all methods that you want to remove from the method view.

    • As the methods list enables multiple-selection, use the Shift or Ctrl key to select a group or range of methods.

  2. Right-click on the selected method or methods in the list at the left of the Methods Viewer window and then select the Remove From List command from the popup menu that is displayed.

    Alternatively, select the Remove From List command from the Methods menu.

The selected method is then removed from the method view and it is no longer displayed in the Methods Viewer window (but it remains in the source window; for example, the Methods List of the Class Browser).

For details about removing a method view, see "Removing a Method View", later in this chapter.
