Replacing a Java Element With a Local History Edition
-
Make sure that a Java view is visible.
-
Open a Java editor for the Java file in which you want to replace a Java element with an edition from the local history.
-
Activate the editor by clicking its tab in the editor area. The Outline view also displays the Java file.
Note: The Package Explorer can be configured to show or not show
Java elements in files. Use the
Show Members in Package Explorer checkbox on the
Java > Appearance
preference page to set your preference.
-
Select the element that you want to replace in the Outline or the Package Explorer.
-
From the element's pop-up menu, select Replace With > Element from Local History.
-
In the upper pane of the resulting dialog, all available editions of the selected element in the local history are displayed.
-
Select an edition in the upper pane to view the differences between the selected edition and the edition in the workbench.
-
When you have identified the edition with which you want to replace the existing Java element, click Replace.
-
The local history edition replaces the current one in the editor. Note: The changed compilation unit has not yet been saved at this point.
