| 13 | <h1>Object Teams Type Hierarchy</h1> |
| 14 | The <b>Object Teams type hierarchy</b> provides the following features |
| 15 | (in addition to the features of the standard JDT |
| 16 | <a href="/help/topic/org.eclipse.jdt.doc.user/reference/ref-type-hierarchy.htm"> |
| 17 | type hierarchy view</a>): |
| 18 | <h3>Type hierarchy tree:</h3> |
| 19 | <ul> |
| 20 | <li>shows <b>supertype/subtype hierarchy</b> of Object Teams types (team classes, |
| 21 | role classes) |
| 22 | </li> |
| 23 | <li>shows full <b>role type hierarchy</b> incl. <b>implicit inheritance</b></li> |
| 24 | <li>displays <b>Object Teams specific icons</b> for team classes, role classes and |
| 25 | method bindings |
| 26 | </li> |
| 27 | </ul> |
| 28 | <h3>Member list (method viewer):</h3> |
| 29 | <ul> |
| 30 | <li>shows <b>methods</b> in hierachy</li> |
| 31 | <li>shows <b>implicitly inherited methods</b></li> |
| 32 | <li>shows <b>method bindings</b></li> |
| 33 | <li>shows <b>inherited method bindings</b></li> |
| 34 | </ul> |
| 35 | |
| 36 | <h2>Opening a type hierarchy on the current text selection</h2> |
| 37 | To open a type hierarchy on a text selection, select the name of an Object Teams element |
| 38 | or Java element in the editor or package explorer and do one of the following: |
| 39 | <ul> |
| 40 | <li>Press <b>F4</b></li> |
| 41 | <li>select <b>Open Type Hierarchy</b> from the package explorer's pop-up menu</li> |
| 42 | </ul> |
| 43 | <b>Note</b>: If the selected Object Teams element or Java element is not a type or a |
| 44 | compilation unit, the hierarchy opens on the type enclosing the current selection. |

| 55 | Note, that for roles, the super types are not restricted to a linear chain, but due to combination |
| 56 | of explicit and implicit inheritance (<a href="otjld/def/s1.html#s1.3.1">OTJLD §1.3.1 </a>) |
| 57 | a role may have multiple supers. E.g., in the picture, <code>HierarchyDisplayImpl.CompositeNode</code> |
| 58 | explicitly inherits from <code>HierarchyDisplayImpl.Node</code> and implicitly |
| 59 | inherits from <code>HierarchyDisplay.CompositeNode</code>. |
