Integrating S6 code search and Code Bubbles
Steven P. Reiss · 2013
We wanted to provide a tool for doing code search over open source repositories as part of the Code Bubbles integrated development environment. Integrating code search as a plug-in to Code Bubbles required substantial changes to the S6code search engine and the development of appropriate user interfaces in Code Bubbles. After briefly reviewing Code Bubbles and the S6search engine, this paper describes the integration strategy, the front end for code search, the modifications to the code search engine to handle context-based search, and the user interface for handling the results of the search.
