| Renaming a compilation unit |
| </h1> |
| <p> |
| To rename a compilation unit: |
| </p> |
| <ol> |
| <li> |
| In the Package Explorer, select the compilation unit you want to rename. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| From the view's pop-up menu, select <strong>Refactor</strong> > <strong>Rename</strong>. |
| </li> |
| </ol> |
| <p> |
| Renaming a compilation unit also renames (and updates all references to) the top-level type that has the same name as the compilation unit. For example, renaming a |
| compilation unit <em>A.java</em> in which a class <em>A</em> is declared also renames class <em>A</em> and updates all references to it. |
