Component Dependencies View

The Component Dependencies view allows you to see the dependencies for a selected XSLT component. You can open the view from Window > Show View > Component Dependencies .

If you want to see the dependencies of an XSLT component, select the desired component in the editor and choose the Component Dependencies action from the contextual menu. The action is available for all named components (templates, variables, parameters, attribute sets, keys, functions, outputs).

In the Component Dependencies view you have several actions in the toolbar:

Refresh: Refreshes the dependencies structure.
Stop: Stops the dependencies computing.
Configure: Allows you to configure a search scope to compute the dependencies structure. You can decide to use automatically the defined scope for future operations by checking the corresponding checkbox.
History: Allows you to repeat a previous dependencies computation.

The following actions are available on the contextual menu:

Go to First Reference: Selects the first reference of the referenced component from the current selected component in the dependencies tree.
Go to Component: Shows the definition of the current selected component in the dependencies tree.

Tip: If a component contains multiple references to another, a small table is shown containing all references. When a recursive reference is encountered, it is marked with a special icon
