Hiho,
tried it but I don't seem to be able to find the appropriate button. I have
a java-project with several attatched jars and associated source-jars. If I
try to find all occurances of (say) a string literal in my project only the
current project source folder is being searched. I would like to be able to
include the sources inside the source-jars as well. Can this be done
easily? I am at a loss.
Thanks,
Olav

When you perform a 'Java Search', you need to precise what kind of
Java element (ie. types, fields, methods, etc.) you're looking for.
Search Engine in JDT/Core (aka 'Java Search') looks only for
declarations/references of these elements and can find them in source
or in referenced jar files if they have attached source files.
When jar files do not have any attached sources
then JDT Search Engine currently find only declarations.
About 'File Search' - which is also Search but a Platform plugin (not JDT) -
I'm not 100% sure, but I would say that it can find string literals only
in project text resources, not in binary files...

It doesn't, I can say this much ;-)
Does this mean I have at last found something that JBuilder does "better"?
Doesn't anyone else but me ever want to do such a thing?
Thanks,
Olav
