7.7.4 Additional IDE Find Mechanisms
The other IDE tools that enable you to search for all the places where specific text is used in a project include:
- Finding and Replacing Text. Searches for all the places where specific text is used in a source file that is open in the Editor. Choose to open the Find dialog box, or choose to open the Replace dialog box. These commands finds all matching strings, regardless of whether the string is a C code element.
- Find in Projects. As with the Find command, the Find in Projects command searches for matching strings, regardless of whether the string is a function name. Choose EditFind in Projects to open the Find in Projects dialog box and then type the string of text that you are looking for.
To find where a function is declared in a source file, you can double click the function in the Navigator window. If the function is declared in a different source file, right click the function and choose from the contextual menu.
