You can add a new method view from any browser other than the Primitive Types Browser.
To add a new method view
Select the Methods Viewer command from the Browser menu. A submenu is then displayed.
Perform one of the following actions.
Select the New View command from the Methods Viewer submenu.
Select the Add command from the Methods Viewer menu (accessed when the Methods View Browser has focus) or from the popup menu in the Methods View Browser.
The Add Method View dialog, shown in the following image, is then displayed.
In the Name text box, specify the name that you require for the method view.
The method view name, which must start with a letter, can be a maximum of 100 characters. It can include numbers and underscore characters, but cannot include punctuation or spaces. The first letter of the name is converted to an uppercase character, if it is lowercase. The name must be unique to the JADE database.
In the Description text box, specify the free-format text that describes your method view, if required (for example, to indicate to other developers the purpose of the method view).
Click the OK button. Alternatively, click the Cancel button to abandon the method view maintenance.
The Methods View Browser is then displayed. For details, see "Adding Methods to a Method View", in the following subsection. See also "Removing a Method from a Method View" and "Using the Methods Viewer Browser", later in this chapter.
