| Open Type |
| </h1> |
| <p> |
| This command allows you to browse the workbench for a type to open in an editor or type hierarchy |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| <strong>Select a type to open</strong>: In this field, type the first few characters of the type you want to open in an editor. |
| You may use wildcards as needed: |
| <ul> |
| <li><em>"*"</em> for any string and <em>"?"</em> for any character</li> |
| <li><em>"TZ"</em> for types containing <em>"T"</em> and <em>"Z"</em> as upper-case letters in camel-case notation, e.g. <code>java.util.TimeZone</code>, or</li> |
| <li><em>"NuPoEx"</em> for types containing <em>"Nu"</em>, <em>"Po"</em>, and <em>"Ex"</em> as parts in camel-case notation, e.g. <code>java.lang.NullPointerException</code>.</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <strong>Matching types</strong>: This list displays matches for the expression you type in the <strong>Select a type to open</strong> field. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| <p> |
| The behavior of the <strong>Open Type</strong> dialog can be further customized using the dialog menu: |
| </p> |
| <table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5"> |
