Java search
The Java searching support allows you to find declarations and references of Java elements (packages, types, methods, fields). Searching is supported by an index that is kept up to date in the background as the resources corresponding to Java elements are changed. The Java search operates on workspaces independent of their build state. For examples, searches can be conducted when auto-build is turned off.
The following searches can be conducted from the pop-up menus of Java elements:
|
Command |
Description |
|
References |
Finds all references to the selected Java element |
|
Declarations |
Finds all declarations of the selected Java element |
|
Implementors |
Finds all implementors of the selected Java interface |
|
Read access |
Finds all read accesses to the selected Java field |
|
Write access |
Finds all write accesses to the selected Java field |
The scope of the search is defined as:
Workspace - all projects and files in the workspace are included in this search
Hierarchy - only the type hierarchy of the selected element is included in this search
Working Set - only resources that belong to the chosen working set are included in this search
