Feature: find module symbols by name, with an Open dialog

Open pvginkel opened this issue 10 years ago • 4 comments

The Ctrl+Shift+R shortcut in eclipse allows you to find files. However, with Rust, a lot of files are named mod.rs. I'm not sure whether this is possible, but it would be very useful if these were differentiated in some way. E.g. if a file is named mod1/mod.rs, that typing mod1 would also match that file.

Sounds like something that's already implemented in eclipse itself.

True, purely for files, you can use Open Resource (Ctrl-Shift-R).

What I would like to do though, is implement a functionality similar to JDT's "Open Type" (Ctrl-Shift-T), where you can search for type symbols (in the case of Java, class or interface types).

@bruno-medeiros I am currently working on the "Open Type" feature. My idea was to build up an index for the workspace using parse-describeand then show a popup similar to the "Quick Outline".

Please let me know if some work on that feature is already ongoing or if there are major infrastructure changes on your stash that are expected to conflict with my development.

@Woyten Nope, there isn't anything planned for the near future that would interfere with that. The major features I have my eyes is Language Server Protocol integration (https://code.visualstudio.com/blogs), and possibly even a port of RustDT/MelnormeEclipse to IntelliJ IDEA (!).

BTW, if you have more development questions, you might want to join the RustDT Gitter: https://gitter.im/RustDT/RustDT
