Use the "To Do List" panel to review the list of outstanding To Do items belonging to the current project. To Do Items are special comments in your source code that can be used for keeping track of important tasks that must be completed for the project.
To create a To Do Item, open the desired source file in the Studio's Code Editor, locate the cursor in the position where you would like to place the To Do Marker and press Ctrl+T. The Studio will mark the current line of code with the special comment marker: //ToDo:
You can also type the To Do marker manually or select 'Add ToDo Mark' from the Text menu. For To Do markers to work they must be the first non-whitespace text on that line. The format of a To Do marker is:
"//" + optional whitespace + "todo:" (case insensitive) + description
To Do Items are only active in DataFlex source code files.
Press Ctrl+Shift+T to place the cursor on the line of code containing the next To Do item in the current file. You can also select 'Next ToDo Item' from the Text > GoTo submenu.
The Code Explorer displays each To Do item in the current file. Double-click a To Do item in the Code Explorer to position the cursor at that location in the source code (you may need to open a branch in the Code Explorer tree in order to see the To Do items that are nested inside).
The To Do List shows all To Do items in the current project, grouped by file name. Click the + sign next to a file name to expand the tree and view all To Do items in that file. Double-click an item to open the file in the Code Editor and position the cursor at the To Do item.
Opens the file in the Code Editor and positions the cursor at the selected To Do item. This is the same as double-clicking a To Do item.
Copies the entire To Do list to the clipboard.
