| <P>To navigate to a particular resource in a view such as the Project Explorer view: |
| </P> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li>From <b>Navigate</b> menu, select <b>Go To > Resource</b>.</li> |
| <li>In the window that opens, start typing the name of the |
| resource in the <b>Pattern</b> field. As you type the file name, the system |
| offers a list of possible matches, based on what you have entered so far.</li> |
| <li>Select the resource that you want from the <b>Matching |
| Items</b> list, and click <b>OK</b>.</li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <p>The view displays the selected resource.</p> |
| <p> |
| If you want to open a particular resource in an editor rather than select |
| it in a view, you can use the |
| <a class="command-link" href='javascript:executeCommand("org.eclipse.ui.navigate.openResource")'> |
| <img src="PLUGINS_ROOT/org.eclipse.help/command_link.svg" alt="command link"> |
| <b>Navigate > Open Resource</b></a> action. |
| This action presents the same dialog as the <b>Go To > Resource</b> action, |
| but immediately opens the matching resource for editing. |
| </p> |
| <p>You can also do a contextual search for character strings contained within |
| files in the Workbench. See the links to related tasks below. </p> |
