Description Sujee Maniyam CLA 2005-02-23 18:35:47 EST
Right now 'Find' dialog has two scopes 1) All and 2) Selected lines.  Would be
nice to have the following additional scopes ...
3) current block
4) current function block
5) current block plus X sorrounding blocks

example

void foo ()
{
     if ()
     {
          for ()
          {
              // cursor here
          }
     }

}

From cursor position I could search
  1) current block - will search the for loop
  2) current block + 1 sorrounding block - will also search IF
  3) current function block - will search function foo

This would need to either provide a separate FindReplaceDialog for JDT UI or
allow to enhance the current.

This is currently not planned.

Get rid of deprecated state.

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.
