1) Open the type org.eclipse.jface.text.Position
2) In the outline, select the field length
3) Popup the menu and select Search>References
4) You get references to array length
Comment 1 Jerome Lanneluc CLA 2001-11-16 12:54:03 EST 
Problem was that field binding for [].length is a special binding that has no 
declaring class. That's why we reported inaccurate matches on [].length.

Fixed by checking if the field binding is ArrayBinding.LengthField.
