Question

If you use the Mylyn task focus UI, the package explorer shows

sourceFolder/package/fileName/classTypeName/methodName

for any class in the context of an active task. Is it possible to remove classTypeName and methodName and show only all entities up to their fileName?

Answer 1

I don’t generally need the structure inside the Java file, so I just disable that in the Package Explorer completely. To do that:

• go to the View menu (the little triangle)
• choose “Filters”
• check “Java Members”

Unfortunately, this doesn’t work in Project Explorer.
