Open Type
This dialog allows you to browse the workbench for a type to open in an editor or type hierarchy
-
Enter type name prefix or pattern: In this field, type the first few
characters of the type you want to select.
The following pattern kinds are supported:
Wildcards:
-
"*" for any string and "?" for any character
-
terminating "<" or " " (space)
to prevent the automatic prefix matching, e.g. "java.*Access<"
to match
java.util.RandomAccess but not java.security.AccessControlContext
Camel case:
-
"TZ" for types containing "T" and "Z"
as upper-case letters in camel-case notation, e.g.
java.util.TimeZone
-
"NuPoEx" or "NuPo" for types containing "Nu", "Po",
(and "Ex") as parts in camel-case notation, e.g.
java.lang.NullPointerException
-
terminating "<" or " " (space) to fix the number of camel-case parts,
e.g. "HMap<" and "HaMap<"
match "HashMap" and "HatMapper", but not
"HashMapEntry" nor "Hashmap".
Both pattern kinds also support package prefixes, e.g.
"j.util.*Map<".
-
Matching items: This list displays matches for the pattern you type in the Enter type name prefix or pattern field.
Recently opened types show up in a history section at the top of the list.
