View Filtering

Allows the developer to filter the Project, Packages, Resources, Problems and (optionally) Classes lists within the workbench to just show the items they are interested in. Options include all items, selected items, owned items, items matching (or excluding) a specified pattern, any items matching an existing working set and any loaded solutions.

"All Items" will show all projects, packages and classes (and is equivalent to the VA Java default behavior). "Selected Items" filters the view to the list of projects containing the currently selected items (by dynamically creating a temporary working set). "Owned Items" filters the list to items owned by the current user (including any containing packages and projects). "Use Pattern" filters the list of projects to include or exclude those that match the specified filter. The working set filters filter the list to the projects, packages and classes specified by the working set. Working sets may be exported to files or imported or merged back in from files. Likewise, if any Solutions have been defined and loaded, they will be presented as possible view filters.

A filter pattern may be set via the "Use Pattern | Set..." option. The filter list is composed of any number of text filters (with wildcards) separated by commas.

By default, the view filtering is not applied to the Classes page of the workbench. You can turn this on via the "VA Assist | Misc" options page.
