Using the BPEL Designer and Service Engine

ProcedureTo find usages of a BPEL component:

  1. In the IDE, open the BPEL file (.bpel) you want to work with.

    By default, the IDE opens the Design view for the BPEL file.

  2. In the Design view, select the element for which you want to see usages.

    You can also select the element in the BPEL Logical View of the Navigator window.

  3. Right-click the element either in the Design view or in the Navigator window and choose Find Usages (Alt-F7) from the pop-up menu.

    The IDE opens the XML Usages window in the lower part of the IDE. The first time you invoke the Find Usages function, the window has no tabs. For each consequent query, the IDE adds a Find XML Usages tab that shows the usages of the component you selected.

  4. (Optional) To go to the source for an element and double-click that element in the tree. The right part of the XML Usages windows is a visual representation of element usages throughout the project.
