Edit Code Template dialog box

Code templates are editable in JBuilder SE and Enterprise.

To access this dialog box, choose Edit on the Templates page of Editor Options (Tools|Editor Options).

Use the Edit Code Template dialog box to edit an existing code template's name and description. You use code templates in the editor to speed up the coding process -- just type the code template name, press Ctrl+J, and the editor automatically expands the template.

Template Name

The name of the template that displays in the Name list of code templates on the Templates page of Editor Options (Tools|Editor Options). Change this as needed.

Description

The description of the template. Change this as needed, especially if you change the code that the template consists of.

OK button

After making changes in this dialog box, click the OK button. The Edit Code Template dialog box closes, returning the cursor to the Code box of the Templates page where you can change the code snippet you want the template to expand to.

Cancel button

Closes the dialog box and discards any changes you made. Returns to the Templates page with focus on the last selection in the Templates table.
