6 Reference
The NonStop Development perspective is an extension of the C/C++ perspective. This chapter
provides reference information about the many ways in which the C/C++ perspective is extended
in NSDEE.
Views and editors
The NonStop Development perspective provides the same views and editors available in the C/C++
perspective with the addition of COBOL and pTAL editor views and the addition of the NonStop
Project Explorer view.
By default, the NonStop Development perspective shows the views in Table 5 (page 126). For details
on views provided by CDT, refer to the C/C++ Development User Guide.

DescriptionProviderView
Displays projects in a tree structure so you can browse, open, and
manage your project's files. Using the context menu, you can perform

many actions from the NonStop Project Explorer, such as initiating builds
and changing the active build configuration.

An editor for pTAL source files that provides syntax highlighting.NSDEEpTAL Editor
An editor for C/C++ source files that provides many specialized features
for C/C++.
CDTC/C++ Editor
Provides a list of build errors and warnings for all open projects shown
in the NonStop Project Explorer. Double-click a warning or error to open
an editor to the file location responsible for the error or warning.
CDTProblems
Automatically lists C/C++ source file comments containing the text
FIXME or TODO. Double-click an entry to open a C/C++ source file that
contains the comment. You can also add your own task entries.
CDTTasks
Displays output of running processes (including build processes and
NonStop applications launched from NSDEE) and accepts keyboard
input to a running process.
CDTConsole
Displays properties of the resource (such as a project, directory, or file)
selected in the NonStop Project Explorer.
CDTProperties
Displays a list of structural elements of a C/C++ source file open in a
C/C++ editor. (Does not display an outline for COBOL or pTAL sources.)
CDTOutline
Allows you to initiate builds for custom make targets. If you add a custom
make target to a makefile.targets file (see “Creating a
CDTMake Target
makefile.targets file for managed builds” (page 114)), you can add that
target to the Make Target view as a named build icon. Then you can
initiate a build of that target by double-clicking the named build icon in
the Make Target view.
CDT provides additional views for showing call hierarchies, type hierarchies, and more. To see
all views available to you, select Window→Show View→Other... to open the Show View dialog.
Figure 85 (page 127) shows the Show View dialog with C/C++-specific views visible.
