from a relative newcomer, can anyone tell me how to do a method or variable name search inside eclipse when working on a large project? Sometimes I feel lost when starting something new in a team.

2You can search for text within a project ([see this thread](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3175035/eclipse-find-in-project)). I'm not sure if that allows you to specify what you are searching for though (i.e. variable or method name) but it's worth checking out. – Sean Powell Nov 22 '12 at 23:58

Yes you can. In Eclipse, Select menu Search and again Search.
In Tab Java Search you can select what you are looking for (i.e method, type, package, field, ...) and where to search.
Regards.

is there a way to search for local variables (in functions and blocks) with a specific name? – simpleuser Jul 15 '16 at 00:48
