Displaying Process Usages of a Class

You can display the current process or processes using a specific class in a non-production mode database. (When a class is in use, no structural changes can be made to that class or to any of its subclasses.)

Use the Process Usages for Class Browser to determine the current processes using a class selected in the Class Browser.

To open a Process Usages for Class Browser, perform one of the following actions

• Select the class in the Class Browser and then select the Show Process Usages command from the Classes menu.

• Right‑click on the class in the Class Browser and then select the Show Process Usages command from the popup (context) menu that is displayed.

The Process Usages for Class Browser is then displayed. This browser, which displays a subset of the data displayed in the Classes In Use Browser (that is, process usages for one class only or for the selected class and its subclasses if the Include Sub Classes check box is checked in the Classes In Use Browser) enables you to view in‑use process usages of the class by:

• Class name (the default)

• Class number

• Application

• Process and its instance number

• Node

The functionality of this browser is like that of the Classes In Use Browser. For details, see "Browsing Classes that Are in Use", earlier in this chapter.

When you have multiple Jade processes running under the same user code, each additional process that uses the same user code is separately identified by a numeric qualifier. For example, the first process found for Wilbur is identified as Wilbur, the second is named Wilbur(2), and so on.
