Zusammenfassung:To facilitate code building, a user can identify an expression to be copied at a position in a source section of program code. Occurrences of the user-selected expression form a set of candidate code expressions. The user-selected expression may include some or all occurrences of a variable within an enclosing scope in the source section, program statements, etc. The formed set of candidate code expressions is presented to the user for user selection of one or more of the expression occurrences within the set. The set occurrences selected by the user are pasted to one or more target locations.
