Bug 208756

Description Daniel Schneller 2007-11-05 08:15:46 EST

Build ID: M20070921-1145

Steps To Reproduce:
Setup:

public interface InterfaceA {
    public void setValue(int aValue);
}
public class ClassA implements InterfaceA {
    public void setValue(int aValue) {
    }
}

public interface InterfaceB extends InterfaceA {
}
public class ClassB extends ClassA implements InterfaceB {
}

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new Main().run();
    }
    private void run() {
        InterfaceB anB = new ClassB();
        anB.setValue(123);
    }
}


Go to ClassA and hit Ctrl-Alt-H on setValue. In Eclipse 3.2.2 you will get Main.run() as a caller match.

In Eclipse 3.3.1 the result is empty!

Searching on InterfaceA shows the expected result in 3.3.

This is very dangerous when you have to e. g. check all callers for some bug pattern etc. People here rely heavily on the call hierarchy.

Using "Find References in Workspace" will NOT yield the match either in 3.3.1 but in 3.2 it will.

There are not filters applied to any views.
