:alt: Search objects dialog
|
|
:align: center
|
|
|
|
With this dialog, you can search for almost any kind of objects in a
|
|
database.
|
|
|
|
You can access it by right clicking a database or any of its child nodes
|
|
and select "Search objects". You can also access it by hitting the
|
|
shortcut (default ALT+SHIFT+S).
|
|
|
|
The minimum pattern length are 3 characters. The search performed is
|
|
non-casesensitive and will find all objets whose name contains the pattern.
|
|
You can only search for object names currently. Examples are: abc,
|
|
%ab%, ab%c, %%%, etc.
|
|
|
|
The result is presented in the grid with object name, object type and
|
|
the object path in the :ref:`object explorer <tree_control>`. You can double
|
|
click on a result row to select the object in the
|
|
:ref:`object explorer <tree_control>`. If the object is greyed out, this means that you
|
|
have not enabled those object types in the :ref:`preferences <preferences>`,
|
|
so you can't double click on it. You can click on the ellipsis appended to
|
|
the function and procedure names to see their arguments.
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can filter based on a particular object type by selecting one from the
|
|
object type dropdown. If the search button is hit when one of the object type
|
|
is selected then only those types will be fetch from the database.
|
|
An object type will not be visible in the dropdown if the database server
|
|
does not support it or if it is not enabled from the
|
|
:ref:`preferences <preferences>`. |
