Hi

So I tried again to understand how spotter works and I looked at the help and I could not understand
how I can find class references.

I saw that but it does not show me how I can use it and I do not really want to understand how this is implemented.

spotterReferenceFor: aStep
    <spotterOrder: 30>
    aStep listProcessor
            title: 'References';
allCandidates: [ (SystemNavigation default allReferencesTo: self binding) collect: #compiledMethod ];
            itemName: [ :method | method gtDisplayString ];
            filter: GTFilterSubstring



To me this help is totally obscure.


Spotter allows the developer to define custom search processors in different classes. These custom processors take effect when Spotter reaches an instance of the extended class. You can find below the list of extensions from this image.

You can also browse this list by inspecting:
