Description Stefan Mücke CLA 2007-05-23 15:18:17 EDT
Version: 3.3.0
Build id: I20070517-0010 (presumably the same as RC1)

When search matches are removed from the 'Search' view, other matches than the selected ones will be removed from the view. When matches from the end of the list are to be removed, matches from the beginning of the list will actually be removed.

Steps To Reproduce (just an example; should be easily reproducible):
- Start an Eclipse instance with en empty workspace
- Create a new plugin project
- Open 'plugin.xml' and go to the 'Extensions' page
- Add the extension point 'org.eclipse.views'
- Right-click on the extension point and select 'Find Declaration'
- In the 'Search' view, right-click on the search match
  and select 'Find References'
- Now there should be 22 matches; the first one is '... - org.eclipse.ant.ui'
- Remove the last entry in the list '... - org.eclipse.views'
- Result: the first match '... - org.eclipse.ant.ui' has gone
  but '... - org.eclipse.views' is still there

Yes, I was able to reproduce.

It is a bug in the Search view, not PDE.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
