Parts Browser Package Filtering

ent_only.jpg (778 bytes) VA Assist Enterprise/G 4.5 Only

Allows the developer to filter the Package list within the Parts Browser to just show the items they are interested in. 

The various filtering choices are the same ones available in the workbench window. 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 packages (and is equivalent to the VA Gen default behavior). "Selected Items" filters the view to the list of projects and packages 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 and packages specified by the working set. 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.

.

Whether package filtering is used at all in the Parts Browser can be set via the "Filter Packages" option in the "VA Assist | Generator" options page
