Description Philipe Mulet CLA 2001-11-29 10:12:04 EST 
Build 20011115

When searching for declarations of method "to*String" (using wildcard in text 
search pattern), no match is found.

Suspecting the char[] pattern matcher to not consider this scenario.
Comment 1 Philipe Mulet CLA 2001-11-29 12:38:08 EST 
Actually, the CharOperation pattern match is working ok. Bug is elsewhere.
Comment 2 Jerome Lanneluc CLA 2001-11-30 16:54:27 EST 
I could not reproduce (i.e. I find matches (lots of them!)).
I guess I would have to get your workspace to see what's wrong.
Comment 3 Philipe Mulet CLA 2001-11-30 18:47:54 EST 
Please try with declarations of 'initialize*builder' instead.
There should be one inside jdtcore.
Comment 4 Jerome Lanneluc CLA 2001-12-01 04:13:16 EST 
If I try 'initialize*builder' I find none, but if I try 'initialize*Builder' I 
find JavaBuilder.initializeBuilder()

Should the search with wildcard be automaticaly case insensitive, or should we 
let the UI decide?
Comment 5 Philipe Mulet CLA 2001-12-03 09:35:49 EST 
Changed the default search engine textual search to be case insensitive. Case 
sensitive search can still be triggered by using:

SearchEngine.search(workspace, createSearchPattern(patternString, searchFor, 
limitTo, true), scope, resultCollector);
Comment 6 Philipe Mulet CLA 2001-12-04 13:33:10 EST 
Reverted to the old behavior, UI will add a checkbox for case insensitivity.
