It's possible (likely, even) that there's more than one way, but one I 
worked on recently worked this way....

The floater is registered in newview/llviewerfloaterreg.cpp 
<https://bitbucket.org/lindenlab/viewer-release/src/f32c39fdfcfe21df2ba8a866eeda47de6713dc46/indra/newview/llviewerfloaterreg.cpp?at=default#cl-266>:

  LLFloaterReg::add("prefs_autoreplace",  "floater_autoreplace.xml",  (LLFloaterBuildFunc)&LLFloaterReg::build<LLFloaterAutoReplaceSettings>);



It is then shown by code in newview/llfloaterpreference.cpp 
<https://bitbucket.org/lindenlab/viewer-release/src/f32c39fdfcfe21df2ba8a866eeda47de6713dc46/indra/newview/llfloaterpreference.cpp?at=default>:

     LLFloaterReg::showInstance("prefs_autoreplace");


The code for that floater is in newview/llfloaterautoreplacesettings.cpp 
<https://bitbucket.org/lindenlab/viewer-release/src/f32c39fdfcfe21df2ba8a866eeda47de6713dc46/indra/newview/llfloaterautoreplacesettings.cpp?at=default>
