Hi newsgroup,
I wonder whether it's possible in the Eclipse IDE to search for whole words only.
E.g., when I am searching for 'File' then I don't want 'FileStream' and the like
in the search result. None of the search functions seems to offer this feature.
Thanks to all who want to help.
Regards,
Frank

Hi Daniel,
Thanks for the reference to regular expressions.
To search for whole words, it's \bword\b and it works perfectly.
