Description Jasper Reichardt CLA 2017-03-09 09:25:40 EST 
Call Hierarchy (Ctrl+Alt+H) works for variables, fields, structs, types and functions.

But how do i visualize the occurrences of a #define constant in Eclipse?

e.g.: #define ObjSpc   "IEDM1CPUWTG"

-> I have to use the Source-Search, which is impracticable.

This would be a Feature that improves the workflow of thousands of developers - with (i think so) very low cost of implementation, since this seems to me to not have any (or very small) impact on other modules.  

thanks,
Gewure

Have you tried Ctrl+Shift+G ? This one finds occurrences in the workspace but without the hierarchy, which is probably what you need.

Oh, i didn't know this. Yes, this works. Thanks for the help.
Still i think this feature wouldn't be the worst!
