Uses Clause Manager improved: Search Identifier information on the Web

[PeterPanettone 157]

Added a context menu item to search for Identifier information on the Web:

 

 

This starts a google query in your default browser using both the selected Identifier name and Unit name. In most cases, this retrieves useful information about the selected identifier.

 

For example, with the Identifier selected in the above screenshot, your browser would open this Google search results page URL:

 

https://www.google.com/search?q=UnlockUrlCacheEntryFileW Winapi.WinInet

 

Additionally, I have optimized the controls on the bottom of the Identifiers tab to better fit with a high DPI display.

 

Here are the sources (based on release r2907) :

 

GX_UsesExpert.zip

Unfortunately they don't compile:

[dcc32 Error] GX_UsesExpert.pas(877): E2003 Undeclared identifier: 'MultiFilter'
[dcc32 Error] GX_UsesExpert.pas(878): E2003 Undeclared identifier: 'IdMultiFilter'

 

edit: Apparently these are TStringList and since they are referenced in multiple methods, they must be fields. If I declare them thus, it compiles for Delphi 10.3.3. Havn't looked at the code yet.

Also, the multiple word filter does not work in this version (I tried your example of "utils system" which gives me an empty list.)

 

Am I right in assuming that this is the latest version of your modified sources?

That's because you have not downloaded/comitted the previous changes:

Please download the previous sources.

I was assuming your changes were cumulative. Apparently they are not.

Sorry. Will make them cumulative in the future.

Not sure this would be better. Just my assumption was wrong.

Ideally I would prefer patches for single features.

I haven't seen any difference. What exactly did you do?
