This window displays an hierarchical view in alphabetical order of all symbols defined in the active build configuration.

Source browse information is not available for symbols in linked libraries.

The display area

The display area contains four columns:

Detail

Symbol type

Displays the symbol type for each element.

To sort each column, click its header.
