ctrl+shift+G is a java short cut to find references to a java object. Currently, to find other references to an extension point, you have to click "find declaring extension point", then switch to the extension points tab, and click "Find references". It would be handy if I could find other references by using ctrl+shift+g, or even right click on an extension point to find other references. I figured this might be up your alley Chris, under sexiness.
sure, looks good to me
(In reply to comment #1) > sure, looks good to me I've been looking for this cool feature where you can right-click on an extension point and be able to see all places where the particular extension point is referenced. I'd like to volunteer to fix this particular bug :)
it's yours ;)
btw, Ketan, this one will take a bit of work, let me know if you need a Mylyn context.
Ketan, on the Extension points page of the plug-in editor, I believe you already have your dream function where you can search and find the corresponding extensions.

Created attachment 79025 [details] mylyn/context/zip Attaching context.
Created attachment 79026 [details] a patch for finding other references of an extension Currently works for IPluginExtension. Don't know if this should be made available for other types as well. See PluginSearchActionGroup#addFindOtherReferencesAction(). TODO: - Add a better icon than the existing one. - Mark as noteworthy ?
Hi Ketan, did you see the FindReferencesAction? I think you might be able to add a bit of code to that class and not need to create a new class. This would also be more consistent with how we handle finding references of required plug-ins. We take the import highlighted and find other imports. Similarly, we can take the highlighted extension and find other extensions.
Let me apologize, it is late. First and most importantly, thank you very much for a working patch. I like it. It is very small and efficient. Thank you very much for taking the time and fixing this bug! We definitely appreciate it!
Created attachment 79405 [details] org.eclipse.pde.ui.patch I simplified the patch a bit on the airplane a bit, used Ketan's patch for inspiration. Thanks Ketan :)
