The OO-Browser was designed and written by Bob Weiner. Motorola, Inc.@:
helped fund early work. Torgeir Veimo and Mark Stern helped write the X
OO-Browser core. Jeff Sparkes helped with the Java language
support. Harri Pasanen contributed the initial Python language support
(derived from the C++ support). Kirill Katsnelson adapted the graphical
OO-Browser for use with Windows.
The latest production release of the OO-Browser is always available for
download from @file{www.sourceforge.net/projects/oo-browser}.
Professional releases of the OO-Browser may also be purchased there to
help support development; they include the OO-Browser with all supported
languages and full source code, a printed copy of this manual and
installation support. Ongoing technical support and automatic upgrades
are available separately.

The OO-Browser must be installed at your site before you can use it.
Instructions for installing the OO-Browser are in the @file{BR-README}
file in the root directory of the OO-Browser distribution, i.e.@: below
@file{oo-browser/}. If you are using InfoDock version 4.0.7
or higher, the OO-Browser is pre-installed so you can skip the
installation instructions.@refill

@unnumbered Introduction
This edition of the OO-Browser User Manual is for use with any version
4.06 or greater of the OO-Browser.
This manual documents the user interface and operation of the
OO-Browser. It assumes a very basic familiarity in the use of InfoDock,
XEmacs or Emacs, as documented in @cite{[Stallman 93]}. It also assumes
familiarity with object-oriented software concepts. However, many of
the technical terms used in this manual are defined within the glossary.
@xref{Glossary}.
The OO-Browser is designed to be easy to use. It has point and click
and menu-based interfaces that you can use, if you prefer, instead of
learning all of the keystroke commands. The body of this manual
discusses the mouse and keyboard interfaces. If you would like to study
the menus, see @ref{Menus}.@refill
Chapter 1 of the manual discusses OO-Browser Environments as a means of
organizing browser work (@pxref{Environments,,Working with
Environments}). @xref{Usage,,Using the OO-Browser}, if you would rather
start with the interactive features of the browser. @xref{Features},
for a quick overview of the browser's features.@refill
Throughout this manual, sequences of keystrokes are delimited by curly
braces @{ @}, function names are delimited by parentheses ( ), and
variable names are @var{emphasized}.@refill

@cindex OO-Browser, the
@cindex Smalltalk
The @dfn{OO-Browser} (pronounced owe-owe-browse-er) is a multi-windowed,
interactive, object-oriented class browser designed for professional
use. It is one of the world's most powerful tools for exploring and
developing object-oriented software. Its user interface is a bit like
the well-known Smalltalk browsers @cite{[Goldberg 83]}, yet its commands
are more flexible and easier to use.
@cindex Info
@noindent
The OO-Browser has a number of exceptional features:
@itemize @bullet
@item
It presently supports seven object-oriented languages (C++, CLOS/Lisp,
Eiffel, Java, Objective-C, Python and Smalltalk), one
non-object-oriented language (C), and one documentation language (GNU
Info).
@item
It is fast and works exclusively from the source code of libraries and
programs to be browsed. Hence, it does not require a compiler.
@item
It may be used for both system exploration and maintenance as part of a
professional software development tool chest.
@item
It quickly displays views of several important object-oriented
relationships, over large sets of classes, not just a single
class at a time.
@item
It has a completely direct-manipulation interface with multiple modalities.
@item
It is integrated with a powerful editing environment that can be
customized to meet personal work styles.

The windows across the top of the OO-Browser frame are called
@dfn{listing windows}; they display @dfn{listing buffers} that list
class, method and attribute names based on user-specified queries.
The @dfn{viewer window} fills the bottom half of the frame. It is used
to display class source, summary information and help on the OO-Browser
command set. The picture shows part of a Java Boolean class in the
viewer window.
All key bindings described throughout this manual are effective only
within listing buffers, unless otherwise indicated. This means
that the keys may not be used within the buffers displayed in the class
viewer window. Instead, all normal editing keys are available in most
viewer window buffers.

@chapter Working with Environments
@cindex Environment, the
@cindex Library code directories
@cindex System code directories
@cindex reusable libraries
@cindex system-specific code
In order to browse code from a set of libraries or an entire system,
an OO-Browser Environment must first be created. An OO-Browser
@dfn{Environment} defines the set of entities that are
browsable within a session of the browser. The first step in creating
an Environment is to create an @dfn{Environment specification} which
tells the browser the name of the Environment, where to save its
browsing data, what programming language the Environment should support,
and what directories to scan for source code to browse. (@xref{Creating
Environments}, for more information.)
Once an Environment has been specified, it can be built, a process which
scans the set of directory trees given in the Environment specification
and saves data about classes, methods, attributes, formal protocols
(interfaces) and relationships among these entities for later browsing.@refill
Whenever the OO-Browser is in use, an Environment is selected. The
phrase, @dfn{the Environment}, refers to the current OO-Browser
Environment. Many browser commands depend upon information in the
Environment.
The set of source files included in an Environment is specified by two
lists of top-level (root) directories whose subdirectories are
automatically scanned by the OO-Browser. The first list of directories
is called the @dfn{system-specific directory list}; it defines the
locations of unreleased code being developed, often for a particular
system. The second list is called the @dfn{reusable library directory
list}; it defines the locations of stable, reusable classes that have
been released for general use. All class names within a single
Environment must be unique to ensure proper operation of the browser
(Duplicate classes will be flagged by the browser for later removal.
Use @{@kbd{M-e}@} @code{(br-env-stats)} in a browser listing window to
help find duplicate classes.)
The OO-Browser lets you name, create, update and save Environments.
Once an Environment has been created, it may be loaded at any time. The
browser will then use this Environment for all of its operations until
another one is loaded.
Within each editor session, the browser caches a separate Environment
for each programming language on which it is used. Thus, if you switch
from Eiffel to C++ browsing and then back to Eiffel browsing, the Eiffel
environment will not need to be reloaded; it will appear immediately and
the frame will appear as if the Eiffel OO-Browser were invoked for the
first time.
Environment files are automatically saved by the OO-Browser
so that you need never become familiar with their format. You are
responsible for requesting the use of a particular Environment whenever
desired. @xref{Invoking,,Invoking the OO-Browser}, for information on
how to specify a different Environment file for use.@refill

@vindex br-env-default-file
@vindex file, OOBR
@cindex default Environment
Environments may be specified, built and/or loaded at any time all with
one command, whether or not the browser user interface is on screen.
Use the @{@kbd{C-c C-o}@} @code{(oo-browser)} command to select a
language and Environment to create or to load by name. (Some
programming modes may override that key binding, so a menu item or
@samp{M-x oo-browser @key{RET}} are the surefire ways to invoke this
command.)
If you have browsed a prior Environment during your current editor
session, you will be asked whether or not to reload that Environment.
If you type @samp{n} for no or if no prior Environment has been loaded,
you will be prompted for an Environment name to load; full completion is
available.
If instead of typing an Environment name, you simply press Return, you
will be prompted for the pathname of an Environment file to load. This
lets you specify Environments created prior to version 4 of the
OO-Browser, which did not have names. The default is to load the
Environment file in the current directory whose name is given by the
@var{br-env-default-file} variable, which is normally set to
@file{OOBR}.
@cindex Environment, default
If you give an Environment name or file which does not exist, you will
be prompted to create a specification for this new Environment. The
recommended default name for Environment files is, @file{OOBR}. It is
best to save each Environment within the top-level directory of the
first system-specific directory of the Environment, i.e.@: the root
directory of a system's code.
@cindex Environment specification
Every Environment must be specified before it can be built or used.
Here are the Environment specification components for which you will be
prompted:
@table @code
@item Top-level system-specific code directories
A list of root directories below which system source code may be
found. Each directory is prompted for individually and argument
completion is available.
@item Top-level reusable library code directories
A list of root directories below which library source code may be
found. Each directory is prompted for individually and argument
completion is available.

Environment specifications are useful when you want to describe a number
of Environments to the OO-Browser yet also want to defer their
construction until later. Large environments then can be built
overnight. When in an OO-Browser listing window, multiple Environment
specifications may be created in quick succession with the
@{@kbd{C-c C-c}@} @code{(br-env-browse)} command, which prompts for all
necessary information to create an Environment specification; simply
give it a non-existing Environment name and answer no when prompted to
build the Environment to defer building for later. The OO-Browser will
automatically prompt you to build an Environment specification whenever
you try to load it for browsing.@refill
@node Building Environments, Saving Environments, Creating Environments, Environments
@c node-name, next, previous, up
@section Building Environments
@cindex Environment building
An Environment specification tells the OO-Browser what to include in the
Environment, but the Environment must be built by scanning the source
directories before it can be used. When a new Environment is to be
built or when a large number of changes have been made to classes in the
current Environment, the following commands are useful:
@findex br-env-rebuild
@findex br-lib-rebuild
@findex br-sys-rebuild
@kindex C-c C-e
@kindex L
@kindex S
@table @asis
@item @{@kbd{C-c C-e}@} @code{(br-env-rebuild)} within an OO-Browser
listing window scans all Environment source code directories. This
prompts for whether or not to use a background process to build the
Environment (if a @samp{make} program is available), so that other tasks
may be performed while the build is active. With a prefix argument
under InfoDock or XEmacs, @{@kbd{C-u C-c C-e}@}, it runs the build in the
background and produces a stack backtrace if an error occurs during the
build;
@item @{@kbd{L}@} @code{(br-lib-rebuild)}
scans only the reusable library directories of the Environment;
@item @{@kbd{S}@} @code{(br-sys-rebuild)}
scans only the system-specific directories of the Environment.
@end table
Whenever class inheritance relations or the set of attributes or methods
for a class changes, the Environment must be rebuilt, but this is
generally a fast process.@refill
@cindex Environment building, batch
@cindex large Environments
The OO-Browser lets you build large Environments in the background of
your interactive session (if a @samp{make} program is available),
allowing other work to proceed without waiting on a build. When a build
is complete, the OO-Browser will prompt you and give you a choice of
whether or not to browse the built Environment immediately.
@cindex batch Environment building
@cindex scheduling Environment builds
Alternatively, any number of very large Environments may be built
overnight by invoking Emacs in batch mode from a shell script. To do
this, you must first create an Environment specification so that the
browser knows what to build. @xref{Creating Environments}. Then use a
shell command line of the form below (substitute your local OO-Browser
installation directory for @emph{Br-Dir}):@*
@example
cd @emph{Br-Dir}; @emph{emacs} -batch -l ./br-start.elc @emph{Env-Spec-File-1} \
... @emph{Env-Spec-File-N} -f br-env-batch-build > @emph{Log-File}
@end example
@noindent
for example:@*
@example
cd oo-browser; emacs -batch -l ./br-start.elc ~/OOBR \
-f br-env-batch-build > log-file
@end example
Redirection of the standard output stream to a log file for later examination
helps ensure that either the Environment build is successful or an error
is logged.

@section Saving Environments
The OO-Browser automatically builds and saves Environments in most
cases. Occasionally you may find a need to force the Environment to
be saved to a file, as in the case when you want to save an Environment
under a different file name.
@kindex C-c C-s
@findex br-env-save
Use @{@kbd{C-c C-s}@}, the @code{(br-env-save)} command, to force a save
of the current Environment. The command will prompt for a file to save
to, with the present Environment file name as the default.
@node Managing Environment Names, , Saving Environments, Environments
@c node-name, next, previous, up
@section Managing Environment Names
@cindex Environment names
@cindex managing Environment names
@cindex naming Environments
The OO-Browser offers a set of menu and keyboard-based commands for
managing user-specific names associated with Environment files. The
menu commands are found on the @code{Environment} menu within browser
listing buffers. @xref{Menus}. The related keyboard commands are for
use within listing buffers.
@vindex br-names-file
@vindex file, ~/.oo-browser
@vindex file, c:/_oo-browser
Each time you create an Environment, you give it a memorable name which
is stored with the associated Environment file name, in a file
given by the variable, @var{br-names-file}. This variable is set to
@file{~/.oo-browser} on UNIX-like OSes and @file{c:/_oo-browser} on
Microsoft operating systems. This @dfn{Environment names file} is
loaded by the OO-Browser at startup so that it can offer completion to
assist you when entering Environment names. The Environment names file
is automatically saved whenever necessary by the browser.
@kindex M-l
@findex br-names-display
Once an Environment has been loaded, your full list of Environment names
can be displayed with the @{@kbd{M-l}@} (br-names-display) command.
This shows each name together with its Environment file name.
@kindex M-a
@findex br-name-add
If you want to browse an Environment created by another user or want to
add additional names to an Environment, when in the browser, use the
@{@kbd{M-a}@} (br-name-add) command. This will prompt for a name and an
existing Environment file with which to associate the name.
@kindex M-n
@findex br-name-change
@kindex M-m
@findex br-name-remove
@kindex M-r
@findex br-name-replace
Use the @{@kbd{M-n}@} (br-name-change) command to rename an
Environment. The command, @{@kbd{M-m}@} (br-name-remove), will delete
an existing name. It removes the name only, not the Environment itself.
The @{@kbd{M-r}@} (br-name-replace) command will change the Environment
file associated with a particular name.

Smalltalk. Use @{@kbd{C-c C-o}@} or, if that key has not been setup,
use @samp{M-x oo-browser @key{RET}} to browse source written in any of
the above languages. This command will prompt for the name of an
existing or new Environment to browse, and then will either create,
build or load the Environment, depending on the state of the Environment
specification. After the Environment is built, the browser will display
the entire set of classes defined or referenced within the Environment.

@samp{M-x python-browse @key{RET}}, and @samp{M-x smt-browse
@key{RET}}. A prefix argument given to any of these commands will cause
it to prompt for an Environment file to use, rather than automatically
reusing the last Environment of the same language.@refill

built or loaded. It then will start interactive operation, displaying
its multi-windowed interface. To abort from these prompts and to cancel
the browser invocation request at any time, use @{@kbd{C-g}@}

the key you pressed will be executed. If you'd like to read the rest of
the credits, you may redisplay the version screen at any time from
within a browser listing window by using @{@kbd{C-c #}@}

which will immediately redisplay the browser just as you left it.
@node Top-Level Classes, Moving to Entries, Invoking, Usage
@section Displaying Top-Level Classes
@cindex classes, top-level
The OO-Browser starts by displaying all classes in the Environment. The
following commands filter the set of classes so that only @dfn{top-level
classes}, those that do not inherit from any others, are shown. The
browser can show all top-level classes or System or Library classes
only. Once in the browser, use:
@kindex s
@findex br-sys-top-classes
@kindex l
@findex br-lib-top-classes
@kindex t
@kindex T
@findex br-show-top-classes
@table @asis

@item @{@kbd{l}@}
to show only top-level Library classes;
@item @{@kbd{t}@} or @{@kbd{T}@}
to show all top-level classes in the Environment.
@end table
The use of any of these commands does not affect the ancestry or
descendancy trees for any given class. Each simply limits which trees are
easily accessible for browsing. For example, selection of Library
top-level classes only, followed by the browser show children command,
@{@kbd{c}@} @code{(br-children)}, would display the name of a System
class if the System class directly inherits from the Library class.
@cindex classes, all

The OO-Browser is very fast at computing ancestor and descendant hierarchies,
accounting for multiple inheritance and cycles where permitted. Descendant
and ancestor listings provide an immediate overview of some key relationships
among class groupings.
@kindex d
@findex br-descendants
@kindex a
@findex br-ancestors
With point on any class entry line in a listing buffer, @{@kbd{d}@}
@code{(br-descendants)} shows descendants for the class and @{@kbd{a}@}
@code{(br-ancestors)} shows ancestors. @{@kbd{C-u d}@} shows the
descendant trees for all of the classes in the current listing;
@{@kbd{C-u a}@} does the same for ancestors.
The ancestor tree for a given root class is normally shown branching out
from the root class. This means that higher-level ancestors, those
further away from the root class, are shown in descending trees below
lower-level ancestors. The leaves of the tree represent the ancestors
furthest from the root, as you might expect.
@cindex ancestors, inverted
@vindex br-invert-ancestors
@cindex inverted ancestors
This, however, is the inverse of inheritance trees. Some people prefer
to see ancestor trees like inheritance trees, with parents above
children. This is an @dfn{inverted ancestor tree}. To obtain this
view of ancestors, use @{@kbd{M- -1 a}@} for ancestors of the current
class. For ancestors of all classes in the current buffer, use
@{@kbd{M- -2 a}@}, or any negative prefix argument less than -1.
Inverted ancestor trees may be set as the default by making
the variable @var{br-invert-ancestors} true: @samp{M-x set-variable
@key{RET} br-invert-ancestors @key{RET} t @key{RET}}. This is a
personal setting that affects all Environments used by the browser.

One of the major uses of the OO-Browser is to view or to edit class
source texts. The @{@kbd{v}@} @code{(br-view-entry)} command will view
the source for the class or element name (attribute, method or instance)
at point in a read-only mode within the viewer window; it will not
select the viewer window. The @{@kbd{e}@} @code{(br-edit-entry)}
command performs a similar function, except that it edits the element
source in a read-write mode, if the user has write permission for the
source file. It also selects the viewer window.
@cindex classes, name completion
@cindex completion
A prefix argument to either of these commands, as in @{@kbd{C-u v}@} or
@{@kbd{C-u e}@}, causes them to prompt for the entry to display.

has been loaded and built. @xref{Completing Names}.@refill
@vindex br-edit-file-function
@vindex br-view-file-function
The value of the variable @var{br-edit-file-function} is the function

The value of @var{br-view-file-function} is the function called to view
a source file. @xref{External Viewing,,Using an External Viewer or
Editor}, for information on using non-Emacs editors and viewers with the
browser.
@findex vc-toggle-read-only
@cindex read-only buffers
If you have no read access rights to a file, this will be apparent when
the browser tries to display the file and fails. If you lack write
permission to the class source file, the standard
@var{br-edit-file-function} may display the file in a read-only mode
(indicated by two percent signs, %%, at the front of the buffer
modeline). This is a warning that you should not attempt to edit the
file. In some cases, you may really need to edit such a file; then, you
may toggle the buffer between read-only and read-write modes via the
Emacs command, @code{(vc-toggle-read-only)}, usually bound to @{@kbd{C-x

@cindex viewer, scrolling
Once an entry has been displayed for viewing, @{@key{SPC}@} will scroll
its source text up (forward) a windowful; @{@key{DEL}@} will scroll it

scrolling the OO-Browser viewer window whenever point, as shown by the
Emacs block cursor, is in a listing window.

forward and backward, respectively. @{@kbd{<}@} will scroll the viewer
buffer to its beginning; @{@kbd{>}@} will scroll display the end of buffer.
When point is moved to the viewer window, you must use @{@kbd{C-v}@} to
scroll up and @{@kbd{M-v}@} to scroll down, assuming the standard Emacs
key bindings are in use.
@kindex C-c C-v
@findex br-to-from-viewer

Sometimes one needs to quickly switch back and forth between the viewer
window and the current listing window. The normal Emacs window movement
commands are often cumbersome in such instances. Instead use
@code{(br-to-from-viewer)} bound to @{@kbd{C-c C-v}@}. This allows the
desired back and forth movement. It acts as a toggle switch,
alternately moving between the buffer in the viewer window and the prior
listing buffer.

@cindex browsing elements
@cindex browsing features
@cindex element browsing
@cindex instance browsing
@cindex feature browsing
A @dfn{feature} of a class is either a routine or attribute defined in
the class. An @dfn{element} is either a feature or an instance of a
class. An @dfn{instance} is an object whose type is that of a
particular class, which therefore shares attributes and methods with the
class.
@cindex default class
@cindex instance
Most OO-Browser languages support feature browsing, as
documented in @ref{Languages}. Instance browsing is supported
in very limited form for class instances which exist within the code
itself. For example, under Common Lisp and CLOS, a default class called
@code{[function]} is defined whose instances are all named functions
defined within the source code. A @dfn{default class} is a class
automatically created by the OO-Browser to categorize standard elements
of particular language Environments. The @dfn{instances} of default
classes are constructs statically defined within Environment source
code. Default classes themselves are not defined within the source code
since they exist only to provide convenient categorization of constructs
within the OO-Browser.
@kindex f

Use @{@kbd{f}@} @code{(br-features)} to display a listing of the

class at point. @{@kbd{C-u r}@} shows the routines in all listed classes.
The @{@kbd{=}@} @code{(br-attributes)} command shows just the attributes
of the class at point; each attribute entry is preceded by an @code{=}
or an @code{&} character to distinguish them from other entry types.
@{@kbd{C-u =}@}, as expected, applies to all listed classes.
@cindex inherited features, toggling
@kindex M-0 f
By default, all inherited features, routines or attributes are shown by
these commands, grouped together by the ancestral classes in which they
are defined. (The OO-Browser does not yet distinguish between private
and public attributes, so all attributes of ancestor classes will be
shown, even if some are private.) Give any of these commands a zero
prefix argument, e.g.@: @{@kbd{M-0 f}@}, and they toggle the display of
inherited features on and off for future listings. In fact, you may use
the simpler key sequence, @{@kbd{0 f}@}, since the zero key is specially
bound to serve as a prefix argument when in listing windows. If
inherited features are off and there are no feature definitions for the
class, the class definition is displayed so that you may browse its
feature declarations.

@section Browsing Categories
@cindex category
@cindex class category
The definition of a @dfn{category} is language-specific. Some languages
such as Smalltalk use categories to group related classes together. The
OO-Browser does not yet support this kind of category. It does support
Objective-C categories, which segment each class into multiple groupings
of related features. Objective-C class categories appear within
parentheses when defined, so the OO-Browser displays category names with
parentheses around them to distinguish them from classes. The
aggregation of all of the categories defined by a class and its
ancestors represents the complete class definition.
@kindex C
@findex br-categories
Use the @{@kbd{C}@} key @code{(br-categories)} with point on a class
listing entry to obtain a list of the categories defined for the class
within the Environment source code (this excludes inherited categories).
Use @{@kbd{C-u C}@} to list the categories for all classes within the
current listing. Thus, to see the full set of categories for a class,
use @{@kbd{a}@} to list the ancestors of the current class and then
@{@kbd{C-u C}@} to show all direct and inherited categories of the
class.

@section Browsing Protocols
@cindex protocol
@cindex interface
@cindex class protocol
@cindex class interface
@cindex conformance to protocol
@cindex formal protocol
The definition of a @dfn{protocol} is language-specific. It generally
refers to an interface specification to which a class must conform. A
class @dfn{conforms} to a protocol by implementing the set of features
defined in the protocol interface. Protocols consist only of
interfaces, without any method bodies, since conforming classes
implement the necessary bodies. They generally differ from abstract
classes, such as those found in Java and Eiffel, in that they define
only the interface for a single facet of a class. The distinction is
subtle, however, and abstract classes may be used as a substitute for
protocols in languages that do not support protocols.
Presently, the OO-Browser supports protocols as a distinct construct
under Objective-C and Java (where they are called @dfn{interfaces}).
Objective-C protocols are sometimes called @dfn{formal protocols}.
Protocol interfaces are specified in a manner similar to classes. A
single protocol may inherit from any number of other protocols;
therefore, any conforming class must conform to all of its ancestor
protocols.
Objective-C class definitions reference within angled brackets the
protocols to which they directly conform. Therefore, the OO-Browser
displays protocol names within <angled brackets> to distinguish them
from classes.
@cindex implementor, protocol
Commands that work on class listing entries generally also work on
protocol entries, notably display of parents, children, ancestors or
descendants. @xref{Browsing Implementors}, for an explanation of how
to browse the classes that conform to a protocol.

Once configured, mouse control within the OO-Browser is helpful and easy
to use. Under InfoDock, XEmacs and Emacs 19 or higher, the right mouse
button, called the Menu Key, pops up a menu of OO-Browser commands when
clicked within an OO-Browser listing buffer. Under XEmacs and Emacs 19
or higher, the same menu is added to the menubar used in listing
buffers. Under InfoDock with mode-specific menus turned on, the entire
menubar is devoted to OO-Browser commands, with each submenu from the
popup menu broken into a separate menubar entry. @xref{Menus}, for a
detailed summary of the available menu commands.
Even if the above features are not available to you, if you have mouse
support in your version of emacs, the following features are available.
A single mouse button, called the @dfn{Action Key}, is used for most
purposes such as displaying classes and features, as well as following
references within code. Within listing buffers, the Action Key is bound
to the middle mouse button on systems which typically have three mouse
buttons and to the left mouse button on two-button systems. Use the
OO-Browser @code{3-Button-Mouse} option to inform the browser that your
system has three buttons, if it does and you are running under a
Microsoft operating system (where systems typically have only two
buttons).
Outside of listing buffers, the Action Key location depends on both the
type of editor that you are using and the number of mouse buttons
available. The Action Key is bound to the shift-middle mouse button
under XEmacs or Emacs, to the middle mouse button under InfoDock, or to
the shift-left button on a two-button mouse under any of these editors.
A second mouse button, called the @dfn{Assist Key}, is used for help and
other ancillary functions. The Assist Key is bound to the shift-right
button. Both of these keys perform context-sensitive actions based on
where they are clicked. @xref{Getting Help}, for details on displaying
a summary that describes their behavior in each context, any time you
are using the browser. Below we discuss these behaviors.
@cindex command menu
@cindex key binding menu
@cindex help menu
Within an empty listing buffer, a click of the Action Key displays a
buffer that summarizes the browser's key bindings (pressing @{@kbd{h}@}
within any listing window displays this same help buffer). We call this
the @dfn{OO-Browser command menu} because an Action Key click within one
of the curly brace delimited key sequences invokes the command bound to
that key.
@cindex buffer menu
A click of the Assist Key within an empty listing buffer displays a menu
of the existing source code buffers for the current OO-Browser
Environment language, such as Java. Within this menu, the Action
Key selects a buffer for display; the Assist Key marks the buffer for
deletion. To perform the deletes, click the Action Key after the last
line of the menu. If the Assist Key is clicked after the last line, the
deletes are undone and a list of all current editor buffers is shown.
This permits you to select buffers other than those containing classes.
@cindex proportional scrolling
@cindex Action Key scrolling
The mouse buttons may be used to scroll the viewer window. An Action
Key click at the end of a line scrolls that line to the top of the
viewer window; the Assist Key puts the line clicked upon at the bottom
of the window. This is called @dfn{proportional scrolling} since the amount
of the scroll is relative to the position of the selected line.
When in an OO-Browser listing buffer, the Action Key acts as follows. If
the key is pressed:
@itemize @bullet
@item
on a blank line following all entries or in a blank listing buffer, the
browser command help menu is displayed in the viewer window;@refill
@item
on a default class name, the statically defined instances of the default

The @{@kbd{m}@} @code{(br-match)} command offers a quick mechanism for
locating any classes in the Environment whose names match to an
expression in part or in whole. The browser prompts for the expression
to use. All matching names are displayed in ascending order. By
default, the expression is treated as a regular expression, i.e.@: a
pattern match. A prefix argument sent to the command tells it to treat
the expression as a string.
After each search, the command reports the number of matching classes
found and displays them in the current listing window. It then prompts
for another expression used to narrow the search further. This cycle
continues until the @{@key{RET}@} key is pressed without entering an
expression. This process allows for easy location of desired classes.
When the command is invoked (first time through the cycle), if the
@{@key{RET}@} key is pressed without giving a match expression, the search
will match to all classes referenced in the Environment.
If you want a regular expression to match to whole class names
exclusively, begin it with a `^' and end it with a `$' character. These
match to beginning of name and end of name, respectively. Thus,

that it matches only to entries in the current listing buffer. It thus
allows you to filter a listing to just those entries that you care to
browse. It prompts you for a regular expression of entries to match
and then deletes entries that don't match. A prefix argument sent to
the command tells it to treat the match expression as a string.
After each search, the command reports the number of matching entries
found and displays them in the current listing window. It then prompts
for another expression to match. The selected set is then filtered
once again. This cycle continues until the @{@key{RET}@} is pressed
without giving an expression. This process allows for easy incremental
filtering of listings.
When the command is invoked (first time through the loop), if the
@{@key{RET}@} key is pressed without giving a match expression, the search
matches to all entries in the listing, so no filtering is done.
If you want a regular expression to match to whole entries exclusively,
begin it with a `^' and end it with a `$' character. These match to

one tree per Xoobr view.

@cindex Xoobr, displaying features in
@cindex descendancy view
Use @{@kbd{M-f}@} @code{(br-tree-features-toggle)} or the
@code{Options/Graphical-Descendant-Features} menu item, to set whether
or not the features of listing classes are shown as child nodes in any
graphical descendency views created by the @{@kbd{M-d}@} command. (The
setting applies across all OO-Browser languages. The default setting is
not to add features to Xoobr views.)
@kindex M-g
@findex br-tree-graph
@cindex Xoobr graphical view
@{@kbd{M-g}@} @code{(br-tree-graph)} displays the current listing
buffer's entries in a graphical form. It ignores the add features
setting so that you can capture the current listing without the need to
alter that setting.
@kindex M-k
@findex br-tree-kill
@cindex Xoobr, terminating
@cindex Xoobr, killing
The @{@kbd{M-k}@} @code{(br-tree-kill)} command prompts to see if
you want to terminate all Xoobr sessions started from within the current
editor session. If you answer affirmatively, all such processes
disappear, as your screen will quickly indicate.
@cindex Xoobr view
(The rest of this section discusses the user interface of the Xoobr.)
Xoobr views are meant to complement the textual browser interface.
Therefore, the two most common actions used in the text browser are
performed in a similar manner within an Xoobr view. A click on a node
with the left mouse button displays the appropriate class text in the
user-selected editor, ready for editing. @xref{External Viewing,,Using
an External Viewer or Editor}. A click of the middle button performs
similarly but displays the associated class for viewing only.
@cindex Xoobr node menu
The right mouse button when depressed over an Xoobr node displays a
short menu of commands that may be applied to the node. The only ones
of real interest at this point are the collapse and expand entries which
let you hide and then restore the display of a node's subtree. This
yields precise control over the amount of detail you receive in
various parts of the hierarchy.
@cindex Xoobr help
The Help button in the Xoobr menubar displays a few pages of help text
regarding the program itself.

@cindex Xoobr menus
The Xoobr menubar may be useful in the future but should
generally be ignored for now. The only menu entry of any import
is found under the file menu, labeled @code{Quit}. Xoobr
processes may also be terminated by issuing the kill command mentioned
previously. A third means of killing such processes is by sending the
permanent @code{(br-quit)} command, @{@kbd{C-u q}@}, to the textual
browser. You will then be prompted as to whether to terminate
all Xoobr sessions started from within the current editor session.

@chapter OO-Browser Options
@cindex options
This chapter explains how to set a variety of OO-Browser configuration
options. A number of sections call for adding a line or two of
variable settings to your personal initialization file in order to
make a permanent change to an OO-Browser option. If you use InfoDock,
the preferred initialization file is @file{~/.infodock}. If you use
Emacs or XEmacs, use @file{~/.emacs} instead.

@section Using an External Viewer or Editor
@cindex external viewer and editor
@cindex editor, external
@cindex viewer, external
The OO-Browser lets you select your desired editor and viewer
programs when you use a multi-windowed display. By default, both of
these tasks are handled by your InfoDock or Emacs editor so that the
browser will work when run on dumb terminals. If you choose an external
editor or viewer for use under a window system, InfoDock or Emacs will
still automatically be used whenever you invoke the browser from a dumb
terminal.
@vindex br-editor-cmd
@cindex vi
The @var{br-editor-cmd} variable is used to set the command that invokes
the editor whenever source code is to be displayed by the OO-Browser.
Arguments to the command should be placed in the variables named
@var{br-ed[1-9]}, with one string argument per variable. Unused
variables should have the value @samp{nil}. Bear in mind that the
command must generate a new window under your window system. For
example, the vi editor under UNIX does not create its own window, it
runs within the window in which it is created. Under X one would create
a new xterm window and then invoke vi. The command line would be,
@samp{xterm -e vi}. The settings in your personal initialization file
would look like this.
@smalllisp
(setq br-editor-cmd "xterm" br-ed1 "-e" br-ed2 "vi"
br-ed3 nil br-ed4 nil br-ed5 nil
br-ed6 nil br-ed7 nil br-ed8 nil br-ed9 nil)
@end smalllisp
@vindex br-viewer-cmd
@cindex xmore
If you want to view classes in a read-only fashion with an external
viewer, set the following @var{br-viewer-cmd} and @var{br-vw[1-9]}
variables in the same way as for the editor variables above.
For example, to use @file{xmore}, an X-compatible version of
@file{more}, as your viewer, use the following settings (assuming all
the @var{br-vw} variables are already @samp{nil}).
@smalllisp
(setq br-viewer-cmd "xmore")
@end smalllisp
The OO-Browser now includes an OO-Browser menu item,
@code{Options/Use-Vi-as-Editor}, that enables the use of @samp{vi} as
the editor and @samp{more} as the viewer. Simply turn this option on
to get this behavior. Follow the prior instructions to make such a
setting permanent.

By default, when the OO-Browser lists features of a class, it shows both
the ones lexically defined within the class source text and the ones
inherited from ancestor classes. Each feature is listed below the class
in which it is originally defined, for clarity. Sometimes it is helpful
to see only the lexically defined features of a class. In such cases,
the menu item, @code{Options/Show-Inherited-Features}, toggles this
setting. If you want this off by default, you may add the following
line to a personal initialization file.

@vindex br-keep-viewed-classes
The @var{br-keep-viewed-classes} flag is turned off by default, which
means that each class buffer read in by the browser will be deleted when
the next one is browsed. If it is set to @samp{t}, all viewed classes
are left around for later selection.
In typical use, the burden of having to manage all viewed classes is
greater than the benefit of leaving them in memory. This is why the
flag is off by default. If you choose to leave them around, the class
buffer menu can be used to delete buffers when you want to trim down the
number of them. @xref{Using the Mouse}, for details on this technique.
@findex br-toggle-keep-viewed
@vindex br-keep-viewed-classes
The value of the @var{br-keep-viewed-classes} flag may be toggled with
the @code{(br-toggle-keep-viewed)} command or with the menu item,
@code{Options/Keep-Viewed-Classes}.
@node Inverting Ancestors, , Keeping Viewed Classes, Options
@section Inverting Ancestor Trees
Ancestor trees are normally shown to emphasize how the trees branch out
from the current class, with the most distant ancestors shown as leaves
of the ancestry tree. If you prefer that all listing displays reflect
the class inheritance structure, with children below parents, you may
invert the ancestry tree listings by adding the following line to your
personal initialization file.
@smalllisp
(setq br-invert-ancestors t)
@end smalllisp
@noindent
This will make the most distant ancestors appear as roots of the trees
and parents (the nearest ancestors) appear as leaves, since they inherit
from the higher level ancestors. This is a global OO-Browser option, it
affects all Environments.

@chapter Using Standalone OO-Browser Features
A number of browser features may be used independently of the browser
user interface. First, an Environment must be selected and loaded into
the OO-Browser via @{@kbd{C-c C-o}@} or @samp{M-x oo-browser @key{RET}}.
When the browser user interface is displayed, use @{@kbd{q}@} to quit.
@findex br-env-load
Alternatively, an Environment may be loaded without invoking the browser
user interface by using @samp{M-x br-env-load @key{RET}}. The
standalone browser features will use the newly loaded Environment.
(Note that terms in all CAPITALS below are an ordered set of parameters
prompted for and used by each command. The key bindings are set up in
the file @file{br-site.el} for each OO-Browser language that you
purchased.)
@noindent
The following commands are available for standalone use.
@table @code
@findex br-feature-edit-declaration
@cindex declaration
@cindex viewing declarations
@cindex editing declarations
@kindex C-c M-j
@item br-feature-edit-declaration @{@kbd{C-c M-j}@}
Prompts with completion for a CLASS::FEATURE argument and then edits the
associated declaration. If point is on a feature definition signature
in a code buffer (prior to any of its arguments), the default is to edit
that feature's declaration. An error is signaled if the declaration is
not found. Presently, this command is available under C++ only.
@findex br-find
@cindex finding an element
@cindex searching for an element
@kindex C-c M-f
@item br-find @{@kbd{C-c M-f}@}
Prompts with completion for a class or element name from the
current Environment and displays its definition for editing.
During code edits and debugging sessions, it is often helpful to be able
to look at a class or element definition without having to invoke the
browser to locate it. The @code{(br-find)} command does exactly that by
prompting for a name and then displaying the named class or element
definition.
@findex br-find-class
@cindex finding a class
@cindex searching for a class
@item br-find-class
Displays the source text for a class matching CLASS-NAME in VIEW-ONLY
mode (or edit mode if @samp{nil}).
The @code{(br-find-class)} command is similar to @code{(br-find)}. It
prompts for a class name and then displays its source file in a
viewable, read-only mode. To display a class file in an editable mode,
send a prefix argument to this command.
@findex br-complete-symbol
@kindex M-@key{TAB}
@item br-complete-symbol @{@kbd{M-@key{TAB}}@}
Performs in-buffer completion of a type or element identifier before point.
When writing code and entering class attribute definitions (variable
definitions), you often have to enter class names repetitively. The
@code{(br-complete-symbol)} command completes and inserts a class name at
point within the current buffer. The following example illustrates
its usage.
@display
my_list: LIN<-- (point is here)
@{@kbd{M-@key{TAB}}@} is pressed:
my_list: LINKED_LIST
@end display
@findex br-where
@kindex C-c M-w
@item br-where @{@kbd{C-c M-w}@}
Prompts for a class or element name and displays the full path to its
definition in another window. With an optional prefix argument, it
inserts the path at point.

are included within C and C-based language Environments. By default,
this flag is true except on operating systems where the OO-Browser
cannot find a UNIX-type shell such as @samp{sh} or @samp{csh}. In those
cases, C constructs cannot be categorized by the OO-Browser. Use
@samp{M-x br-toggle-c-tags @key{RET}} to toggle the value of this
variable. If you set it false before building an Environment, then C
constructs will not be included in the Environment.@refill
If you wish to build an Environment whose source code is entirely C,
ensure that the @var{br-c-tags-flag} is enabled and then select C++ when
asked for the language to browse.

@subsection C++ Listing Entries
C++ entities are categorized when shown within OO-Browser listing
buffers. Classes are shown by name, without any prefix. Features
are shown by name but are preceded by a special character that indicates
the kind of feature. The following table describes each prefix:
@table @code
@item >
precedes pure virtual functions, which are specified but not defined within
this class;
@item %
precedes friend functions and classes, which have access to the class'
private parts;
@item +
precedes constructors and destructor functions;
@item -
precedes any other type of member function;
@item &
precedes static attributes (one attribute per class);
@item =
precedes instance attributes (one attribute per object instance).
@end table
@noindent
The following paragraphs discuss each of these types of features in more
detail.
@cindex C++ feature listings
@cindex pure virtual function
@cindex function, pure virtual
@cindex deferred function
C++ pure virtual function declarations, which specify method interfaces
but no implementations, appear in class feature listings. Their
function names are preceded by the @code{"> "} string to identify them
as pure virtual (deferred) functions. Pure virtuals may be treated like
any other member functions within the browser. Since they lack
definitions within their base classes, their declarations are shown when
a view or edit command is given.
@cindex friend
@cindex function, friend
@cindex class, friend
@findex br-view-friend
@kindex V
Friend functions and friend classes give members of another class access
to the private parts of their class. Friend functions and classes
appear in class feature listings preceded by the @code{"% "} string.
The keys, @{@kbd{v}@} or @{@kbd{e}@}, display the friend declaration
within the current class. Use @{@kbd{V}@} @code{(br-view-friend)} in a
listing window to view the definition of the friend itself. If you use
@{@kbd{e}@}, which leaves point on the friend declaration, a press of
the Action Key will then move to the definition of the friend itself.
@cindex constructor
@cindex destructor
@cindex C++ constructor
@cindex C++ destructor
@cindex C++ new operator
@cindex C++ delete operator
Methods and operators for creating and destroying objects are preceded
by the @code{"+ "} string in listing buffers. All other method listing
entries are preceded by the @code{"- "} string.
@cindex attribute
@cindex C++ attribute
Static attributes (data members instantiated once per class) are shown
preceded by the @code{"& "} string regardless of their types. Instance
attributes (data members instantiated at each object creation) are shown
preceded by the @code{"= "} string regardless of their types.

@subsection Source Code Element Selection
@cindex C++ reference browsing
Once you have loaded an Environment, whether or not the OO-Browser
user interface is on screen, you can use the Action Key to follow
a variety of references within the code. Simply press the Action Key
on an identifier or C++ construct and its associated definition or
list of possible definitions or its declaration (if no definitions exist
within the Environment) will be displayed for you to inspect or
edit. More specifically:
@itemize @bullet
@cindex C++ method declarations
@cindex C++ declaration browsing
@cindex C++ definition browsing
@item You can jump from a C++ class or method declaration to its
definition by pressing the Action Key within the declaration signature
(with point prior to its argument list). A press of the Action Key on a
method definition signature (with point prior to its argument list) will
also jump to the associated declaration so that you can pop back and
forth between the two (assuming their signatures match up). If the
method is defined within an ancestor class, a message at the bottom of
the frame will announce the defining class whenever its definition is
displayed. (Note that the @{@kbd{j}@} key can be used within browser
listing buffers to view class and feature declarations. The @{@kbd{J}@}
key works the same way but displays the entry for editing rather than
viewing.)
One stylistic tip: Each feature declaration should be terminated with a
semicolon, rather than declared in a list, to ensure accurate scanning
by the OO-Browser, i.e.@: don't use declarations like: @code{float f1,
f2, f3;}.
@kindex C-c M-j
When in a code buffer, @{@kbd{C-c M-j}@}
@code{(br-feature-edit-declaration)} will prompt for a feature name and
will then display its declaration for editing. The key, @{@kbd{C-c
M-f}@} @code{(br-find)} displays works similarly but displays
definitions instead. @xref{Standalone,,Using Standalone OO-Browser
Features}, for more complete operational descriptions of these
commands.@refill
@cindex C++ class browsing
@item Classes can be browsed by pressing the Action Key on their names
in inheritance clauses, feature signature argument lists or within
scoped member references. It is therefore important to click on the
method name part of a declaration when that is the element desired.
@cindex method call browsing, C++
@cindex function call browsing, C++
@cindex C++ method call browsing
@cindex C++ call browsing
@cindex C++ call browsing
@cindex C++ function browsing
@item C++ method, function call and single-level attribute reference
browsing is now supported by pressing the Action Key on the member name
of a call. The OO-Browser deals with much of the complexity of the C++
calling syntax so you need not (though it doesn't yet account for method
overloading). In cases where it cannot determine a unique definition
(e.g.@: where dynamic binding is involved), it pops up a list of possible
definitions (method signatures). An Action Key click on any of these
(or on the class names separating these signature lines) will display
the definition within the source code. If the browser determines a
unique base class of the call, it produces an ancestry tree of classes
and intersperses the possible matching method signatures indicating the
base class of each method in a fashion similar to how inherited features
are shown in browser listing buffers.
If no definitions are found, the browser tries to display a matching
declaration. @xref{Browsing Elements}.
@vindex c++-include-dirs

@cindex include files
@cindex C++ include files
@item You can browse include files by selecting their inclusion
declarations (#include ...) within a source file. Include files

@cindex methods, specialized parameters
In CLOS, methods may have explicitly typed parameters of the form,
@samp{(<parameter-name> <class>)}; these are called @dfn{specialized
parameters}. Each such parameter defines the method within
@samp{<class>}. Thus, a single method definition can generate methods
associated with many classes. The OO-Browser lets you navigate to a
method definition from any of the classes for which it is defined, since
a method is included as an element of each of its constituent classes.
CLOS permits compile-time computation of the @samp{<class>} of a
specialized parameter through use of the expression, @samp{(eql
<form>)}. Since the OO-Browser cannot perform this computation, it
treats such a parameter as non-specialized.
@cindex CLOS, the class t
Methods may also contain non-specialized parameters of the form,
@samp{<parameter-name>}. The type of each such parameter defaults to
the built-in root class, @samp{t}. But a method is included in the
class @samp{t} by the OO-Browser only if none of its parameters are
specialized. Otherwise, methods with more specific types which happened
to include one or more non-specialized parameters would appear to not
have a more specific type than @samp{t}.
@node CLOS Settings, , CLOS Method Handling, CLOS Specifics
@subsection CLOS Settings
The OO-Browser automatically works with CLOS class and method
definitions. But Lisp contains many other standard object types such as
functions, macros and variables which you may wish to browse. These are
handled through a configuration variable as explained below.
@vindex clos-element-type-alist
@cindex default class
@cindex element type
The @var{clos-element-type-alist} variable determines the Lisp definition
constructs that the browser looks for and the associated default class
under which instances of each construct type are grouped. Each element
in the association list is a dotted pair whose first part is the function
name string that defines an instance of a particular type,
e.g.@: @samp{"defun"}.
The second part is a default class name, a string, under which to assign
each instance of the type, e.g.@: @samp{"function"}. The OO-Browser
always displays default class names with square brackets around them,
e.g.@: @samp{[function]}, to distinguish them from classes defined within
the Environment.
@noindent
Here is the standard value of @var{clos-element-type-alist}.
@smalllisp

@subsection Source Code Element Selection
You can jump from an Eiffel element reference to its definition by
clicking the Action Key on the reference. Selection of a
feature name in an export clause displays the feature definition, even
if it is renamed several times within ancestors. Parent classes may be
browsed in a similar manner by clicking on their names in an inheritance
or declaration clause.
The following example of locating a renamed feature is taken from an
actual set of Eiffel library classes:
@smallexample
The user selects feature `subwindow' of @code{POPUP_MENU}
inherited from @code{WINDOW} which renames `child' to `subwindow'
inherited from @code{TWO_WAY_TREE} which renames `active' to `child'
inherited from @code{TWO_WAY_LIST}
inherited from @code{LINKED_LIST} which defines `active'.
@end smallexample
@noindent
The browser displays the feature @code{active} and explain to the
user that feature @code{subwindow} of class @code{POPUP_MENU} is
inherited from feature @code{active} of class @code{LINKED_LIST}.
Location of this sort of feature definition would be incredibly tedious
without programmatic support.
The algorithm used to locate features is dynamic, so if another class
is inserted into the inheritance structure given above, the feature
definition will still be found.

Emacs has a feature called error parsing which lets you quickly jump to
the line of code that supposedly triggered an error.
@xref{Compilation,,Compilation Errors, xemacs, the XEmacs Manual},
for information on error parsing. Some object-oriented language
compilers display the name of the class and line number with each error
message but do not include the filename containing the class source
code. Emacs then has no way of parsing the error message. The browser
class location facilities enable you to perform error parsing across any
set of classes in a single Environment, given only this type of message.
Interactive Software Engineering's Eiffel compiler is an example of a
compiler that (at least at one time) produced this type of error. The
code for parsing ISE Eiffel error messages is included in

Concepts pertinent to operational usage of the OO-Browser are defined
here. If some GNU Emacs terms are unfamiliar to you, see
@cite{[Stallman 93]}.
@table @code
@item Ancestors
All classes above a class in the inheritance hierarchy.@refill
@item Attribute
A data item declared with a class. Most attributes are
instance-specific; each instance object of a class has its own copy
of the attribute so that it can maintain a separate state. Some
languages allow for class attributes where all instances of the class
share one copy of the attribute and thereby maintain shared state.
@item Category
Under most languages, a logical grouping of related classes. The
OO-Browser does not yet have any support for this kind of category.
Under Objective-C, a category is a partial class definition that
implements a related set of methods. The full class definition is
formed from the conjunction of all of the class' categories. The
OO-Browser does support Objective-C category browsing.@refill
@item Children
First level of classes below a class in the inheritance hierarchy.
Those that directly inherit from a class.@refill
@item Class
A factory construct from which object instances are created. The
OO-Browser displays classes along with their elements, categories and
formal protocols.
@item Class at Point
The class in a listing buffer whose name appears on the same line as
point.@refill
@item Completion
The act of filling in the non-ambiguous part of a requested item, such
as a class name or a file name, based on a list of possibilities.@refill
@item Declaration
A specification of a programmatic entity, for reference by other parts of
a program. See also @code{Definition}. The declaration of a method
specifies its signature but not its body.@refill
@item Default Class
A class that the OO-Browser automatically creates to categorize
instances of constructs that are built-in to a language, such as class
protocols or global functions. Default class names begin and end with
square bracket delimiters, as in @code{[protocol]}.@refill
@item Definition
A complete, unambiguous description of a programmatic entity,
For example, the interface and body of a method defines it.
@item Decendants
All classes below a class in the inheritance hierarchy.@refill
@item Element
A feature or an instance of a class.
@item Environment
A series of browser lookup tables and control variables that specify the set
of classes and inter-class relationships with which the browser works.@refill
@item Environment File

an Environment.@refill
@item Feature
A method, attribute, or other component of a class. Features may be
public or private and in some languages, non-inheritable.
@item Formal Protocol
See @code{Protocol}.@refill
@item Friend
In C++, a specially declared class or method which is granted access to
the private parts of the class in which its friend declaration is found.
@item Implementor
A class in which a particular element is defined. This does not include
classes which inherit an element.
@item Initialization File
See @code{Personal Initialization File}.@refill
@item Instance
An object which has a particular class as its type. The class serves as
a template for instance creation.
@item Interface
See @code{Protocol}.
@item Library Classes
Stable, seldomly changed classes that have been released for general
usage.@refill
@item Listing Window
One of a number of browser windows used to display lists of entities.
Inheritance relations are shown in listing windows via class name

A callable function defined within one or more classes.
@item Minibuffer Window
The single line window at the bottom of an Emacs frame. It is used to
interact with the user by displaying messages and prompting for
input.@refill
@item Module
In Python, a namespace created by a code file used to group together
global variables, functions and classes.
@item Package
In Python, a namespace created by a code file used to group together
global variables, functions and classes.
@item Parents
The next level of classes above a specific class in the inheritance
hierarchy. Those from which a class directly inherits.@refill
@item Point
The position within the current buffer that is immediately in front of
the character over which the Emacs block cursor is positioned.@refill
@item Protocol
An interface specification to which a class conforms. Some languages
use abstract classes for this purpose. Under Objective-C, Java and now
Python, you may define formal protocols (also known as interfaces) which
include a set of method signatures which a class must implement if
it conforms to the protocol. One protocol may inherit from a list of
other protocols, and thereby expand the set of methods which a
conforming class must implement.
@item Routine
See @code{Method}.
@item Signature
An interface specification for a method. It includes the method's
class, type of return value and the types of its formal parameters.
@item Smart Menu System
See @code{Smart System}.
@item Smart System
The Smart System is another handy program that helps you to work smarter
and faster. It consists of two parts, the Smart Key System, a direct
manipulation keyboard interface that gives you control of most Emacs
subsystems by using only two keys, and the Smart Menu System. This
provides a hierarchy of menus within Emacs that you use instead of
keyboard commands, even when running on a dumb terminal without a window
system. One of its uses is to invoke the OO-Browser on any desired
language Environment. (Part of the Smart Key System is included with
the OO-Browser. The Smart Menu System is available separately.)@refill

Classes still in development whose interfaces are likely to change.
They are typically part of a specific project and are often not meant to
be reused elsewhere.@refill
@item Tag
A line from an OO-Browser internal lookup table that is used to match

@appendix Features
@itemize @bullet
@item
Support for C, C++, Common Lisp and its Object System (CLOS), Eiffel,
Java, Objective-C, Python and Smalltalk class browsing is included.
Additionally, support for browsing large amounts of material in Info
format by node name (a popular online documentation format with cross
references and hierarchical structure) is included. All languages
provide class browsing via either a textual or a graphical interface.
@item
Method and typically attribute browsing is supported for all languages
except Smalltalk. CLOS supports browsing all elements defined with
@code{(def} constructs. In-source feature browsing is also supported for all
of these languages. One simply selects a feature name to jump to its
corresponding source. Method name overloading in C++ and inherited
feature renaming in Eiffel are fully supported.@refill
@item
Under C++, one can click on a method call, function call or attribute
reference to jump to its associated definition. If multiple definitions
are possible, a structured dynamic list of possible method signatures
are shown and can be clicked upon to jump to any selected definition.
@item
Under C++, friend classes and functions may be browsed easily.
@item
C code browsing is supported for C++, Objective-C and C source code.
@item
Objective-C category and formal protocol browsing is supported.
@item
C++ parameterized template classes and methods are supported.
@item
Java abstract and native (externally defined) method browsing is
supported.
@item
All classes that implement a particular feature name, protocol (or
interface) name, or class category name may be listed and then browsed.
@item
Immediate switching among languages is allowed. One can switch from
Eiffel browsing to C++ browsing in an instant, if so desired. Or simply
run two OO-Browsers side by side (in separate editor sessions)..
@cindex multiple inheritance
@item
Multiple inheritance support is built-in, where applicable.
@item
Statistics on classes and Environments may be displayed.
@item
Language-specific class information may be shown. Presently this
feature is supported in a minor way under Python and more extensively
under Eiffel, where a listing of class parents, attributes, routines and
best guess (highly accurate) list of routine calls may be displayed.
Outputs from the Eiffel @code{short} and @code{flat} commands may also
be shown.
@item
Library (stable) and System (in development) classes may be maintained
and listed separately or together. Any number of Libraries and Systems
may be combined for listing in a single Environment. There are no fixed
limits on the number of classes per Environment nor on the number of
Environments that may be browsed.
@cindex source code
@item
All source code is included and is heavily documented.
@item
Machine-independent mouse support is included along with an extremely
intuitive point and click interface that uses just two mouse keys. The
OO-Browser is pre-configured for use with the X window system and Microsoft
Windows under InfoDock, GNU Emacs and XEmacs. Online mouse usage help is
always one key away.
@item
Popup and pulldown command menus are available under InfoDock, GNU Emacs V19
(or higher) and XEmacs.
@item
The OO-Browser help display gives short descriptions of all of the
commands and key bindings available in the browser. By clicking on any
such selection, the corresponding command is executed.
@item
One may also click on class names to see ancestors, descendants or the
class itself. Just select a class name and the OO-Browser immediately
will display or edit the class source. Once a class file has been
loaded, one can quickly switch to it by selection from a menu of such
files.
@item
For a number of languages, one may also select a feature (method) name
or declaration and move directly to the definition of the feature. The
browser accounts for the complexities of member name overloading in C++
and unlimited feature renaming in Eiffel so that you need not. Just
click on a declaration and watch the browser display jump to the proper
definition.
@item
In C++, one can jump to the declaration of a listing entry or be
prompted within any buffer for a class and feature name whose
declaration one wants to browse. One can jump back and forth between
declarations and their associated definitions (between header and code
files) with a single command.
@item
Jump back to a previously visited class or feature by selecting from a
list of recently visited buffers.
@item
OO-Browser commands may also be invoked from the keyboard, allowing
unrestricted use via standard terminal interfaces.
@item
Building Environments is fast compared to many other tools. Browser
startup, once an Environment has been built, is very fast. Response
times on workstations are excellent; for example, in one test case years
ago, less than two real seconds were required to display a set of
complex inheritance graphs involving over 400 classes.
@cindex repeated inheritance
@cindex ellipses
@item
An X-specific or Windows-specific hierarchy display browser is included.
It provides views of class inheritance structure and lexically included
elements, which allows for quick random access to entire Environments.
A click on a class or element name immediately jumps to it in the
editor, providing rapid, visual browsing. One can pop up several
graphical browsers to gain different views of classes in the same or in
multiple environments. All graphical browsers can communicate with a
single textual browser, so one can quickly display and edit classes from
different environments (even different languages). Multiple inheritance
is handled through repetition of nodes throughout the tree; repeated
nodes are followed by ellipses to indicate multiple inheritance.
@item
The OO-Browser uses class source code only, hence no compiler is
necessary for proper browser operation. This allows one to explore
class libraries without the need for additional tools.
@item
Class inheritance networks may be displayed. Either a single
inheritance level (parents or children) or the entire inheritance
network (ancestors or descendants) for a set of classes may be shown.
@item
Class files may be added as a group by specifying a root directory below
which all class files are found, including those in subdirectories.
@item
A menu of class files can be displayed for random access to specific
code modules.
@item
On startup, the OO-Browser lists all currently known classes within a
particular Environment. Any desired classes may be found by searching
or by matching a regular expression or string to the set of class names.
This may be done repeatedly to achieve an "and"-type relational query
effect.
@item
The number of listing windows is limited only by the frame width and
the width setting used for listing windows.
@item
The OO-Browser is adaptable to any class-based object-oriented language.
@item
The OO-Browser works with the powerful, freely distributable, GNU Emacs
editor; it works on any UNIX system display supported by Emacs. It is
included as part of InfoDock, the integrated development environment,
and is also compatible with XEmacs. Alternative editors may also be
used to view or to edit source code displayed by the browser.
@item
All OO-Browser outputs are text which may be edited as desired or saved to
files.
@item
OO-Browser functions may be used standalone within the editor without
utilizing the multi-windowed browser interface. One useful example is to
point to a class name such as a parent class in the text of another class and
have the parent's source appear in an editable fashion.
@item
The user need not know the location of class source; the browser will display
or edit a class based solely upon its class name.
@item
A single key provides ascending or descending ASCII ordering of class
names, including those from inheritance trees. Classes may be easily
located by matching a regular expression or string to the set of class
names in an Environment, with repeated searches incrementally narrowing
the selected set.
@item
The browser is tailorable to any class-based object-oriented language.
It works best with languages that focus on static class creation such as
Eiffel and C++.
@cindex GNU Emacs
@cindex Emacs
@cindex UNIX
@item
The OO-Browser is built to integrate with the powerful GNU Emacs and
XEmacs editors and the even more powerful InfoDock environment; it works
on any UNIX, DOS, Windows or Macintosh system display supported by
Emacs. Most browser commands may be executed by direct selection,
providing a very natural interface.
