| <li>Method declarations: Hierarchy search finds overriding and overridden methods in the hierarchy. |
| Other searches find methods with the same name and signature, but ignoring declaring type and return type.</li> |
| <li>Field declarations: Ignore the declaring type and the field's type.</li> |

| Custom scopes can be configured using the working set dialog. Existing working sets |
| are shown in the Search scope submenus after they've been used in a search. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| A Java search can also be conducted via the context menu of all Java views. |
| The search context menu is also available in the Java editor. The search is only performed if the currently selected text can be resolved to a Java element. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The type of the selected Java element defines which search context menus are available. The Java editor does not constrain the list of available Java searches based on the |
| selection. |
