Finding References

The Find References refactoring feature helps you locate any connections between a file containing a symbol you intend to rename and other files where that symbol also appears. A preview allows you to decide how you want the refactoring to operate on specific targets or on the group of references as a whole.

To create a Find References list

  1. Open a project.
  2. Select an identifier in the Code Editor.
  3. Choose SearchFind References.
    Note: You can also invoke Find References with the keyboard shortcut Shift+Ctrl+Enter
    .
  4. Double-click a node in the window to go to that location in the Code Editor.
    Note: If you continue to perform Find References operations without clearing the results, the new results are appended in chronological order to the existing results in the window.

To clear results from the Find References window

  1. Select a single reference or a node.
    Note: No matter which you select, you get the same results. The entire node will be cleared.
  2. Click the Refactor Delete icon Refactor Delete icon at the top of the Find References window, to delete the selected item and any item in that result set.
Note: Deleting items from the Find References
window does not delete them from your actual code files or your project.

To clear all results from the Find References window

  1. Select any item in the window.
  2. Click the Remove All References icon Remove All References icon at the top of the Find References window. This action clears all results from the window.
Note: Deleting items from the Find References
window does not delete them from your actual code files or your project.
