Question

I’m looking a way to quickly find a file in the eclipse Project Explorer/Navigator without knowing in which sub folder I need to look for it.

The best way would be to have Project Explorer which just shows all source code files in the active project in alpabetic order.

Alternative a “filter text” box at the top of the Project Explorer/Navigator would also work.

Thanks for your help.

Try Ctrl+Shift+R (lookup resource). With Eclipse 3.7, you can even include parts of the path if you prepend the pattern with * (i.e. */test/logback.xml won’t find project/src/logback.xml).

For types, use Ctrl+Shift+T
