Existing eclipse file search has few pitfalls, Can not search based on file path

  • 0

Existing eclipse file search has few pitfalls,

  • Can not search based on file path pattern
  • Can not search based on file exclusing pattern
  • Can not search for directory names [say search for all maven generated target directories and mark them as derived ]

Are there any plugins that extend to cover these functionalities, or I need to wait for newer version of eclipse ?

    I don’t know of a search plugin which has those feature (like an exclude pattern).

    There was a SOC project in 2007 to enhance that search, but the result, in term of exclusion pattern for instance, will be available in Eclipse4 (see bug 252996).
