I am trying to get the names of all different types and classes used in the
.java file currently open in the Java-Editor. For that purpose I used the Java
Search Engine, in the way described in the Eclipse-Help (JDT Plug-in Developer
Guide -> Programmer's Guide -> JDT Core -> Using the Java search engine). I
created some Searchpatterns, which should search for types, but my results are
methods, and not a single type. My code is as follows: 

ClassSearchJob extends Job
 {
  IWorkbenchWindow currentAktivWorkbench;

    public ClassSearchJob(String name)     {
    super(name);
    }

    protected IStatus run(IProgressMonitor monitor)     {
    IJavaElement element = null;
    IWorkbenchPage aktivPage = currentAktivWorkbench.getActivePage();
    IEditorPart part = (IEditorPart) aktivPage.getActiveEditor();
    IEditorInput editorInput= part.getEditorInput();
    if (editorInput != null)       {
      element = (IJavaElement)editorInput.getAdapter(IJavaElement.class);
      }
    ClassSearchRequestor requestor = new ClassSearchRequestor();
    IJavaSearchScope scope = SearchEngine.createJavaSearchScope(new
          IJavaElement[] {element});
    SearchPattern pattern = SearchPattern.createPattern("*",
         IJavaSearchConstants.CLASS, IJavaSearchConstants.ALL_OCCURRENCES,     
    SearchPattern.R_EXACT_MATCH );
    SearchEngine searchEngine = new SearchEngine();
    try     {
  searchEngine.search(pattern, new SearchParticipant[]                    
{SearchEngine.getDefaultSearchParticipant()}, scope, requestor,                
null);
    }
    catch (CoreException ce) {}
    Vector results = requestor.matches;
    for (Enumeration enu = results.elements(); enu.hasMoreElements();)
    {
System.out.println(enu.nextElement().toString());
    }
    return Status.OK_STATUS;
    }
}


Some comments on my code:
currentAktivWorkbench is set by the UI-Thread that creates the job.
The ClassSearchRequestor used above has empty methods "beginReporting()" and
"endReporting()". The method "acceptSearchMatch(SearchMatch match)" adds the
SearchMatch to a public Vector called "matches".
The job is running on "BUILD" priority.
