| <h1>Show References</h1> |
| <p> Select the <strong>Show References</strong> command [ <img src="../../../images/org.eclipse.jdt.debug.ui/elcl16/all_references.png" alt="Show All References"> ] to change if references should be displayed as variables in the view. When turned on, each Java variable that supports references will have a new child item with the name "'<variable name>' referenced from:". This new variable contains a list of all Java objects that hold a reference to the parent object. You can get a text list in the detail pane by clicking on the reference list variable or explore the details of each referencing object by expanding the variables. </p> |
| <p>References will only appear in the view if the Java Virtual Machine you are using supports reference retrieval.</p> |
| <p>This command applies to:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li> <a href="../../../reference/views/expressions/ref-expressions_view.htm"><strong>Expressions View</strong></a></li> |
| <li><a href="../../../reference/views/variables/ref-variables_view.htm"><strong>Variables View</strong></a> </li> |
| </ul> |
| <p>The Variables View with Show References turned on. In this case, the Map is references by one object, a HashMap$EntrySet. </p> |
