The JADE development environment enables you to add or maintain method views, which group methods from any class in any schema into a named workspace that can assist you in book-marking workflows (for example, all methods and events that relate to a specific feature, with the method view description advising other developers about the functionality provided by the methods).
Method views are useful for encapsulating all methods that relate to a specific area or feature on which you are working to separate them out from the Schema Browser and the Class Browser of each schema. You can include methods from any class in any schema in a method view by dragging and dropping them into the Methods View Browser from any other source window, including another Methods View Browser.
You can browse all method views created by you or by another developer, and add methods to or maintain methods in an existing method view. As a method updated in a method view is updated in the original (source) location, any change is immediately reflected in any source window for that method when the lock is released after compilation. When you extract a method view, all methods are extracted to a partial schema file.
As a method view is persistent, it is available across work sessions for you or any other developer to view or maintain by adding or removing methods or updating methods in the view.
The middle section of the Methods Viewer submenu (accessed from the Browser menu) displays the ten most-recent method views that you accessed, so that you can quickly access the one that you require.
