GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 647808
A global search project dialog
Last modified: 2011-04-17 18:13:05 UTC
Hi, I wanted to do some gnome3 developing and cant find my most used function in Codeblocks the Find in whole Project search, which quite helpsme a lot to get an overview where what is in totally unknown code/project. (especially in the gnome-shell c / js code mix where im still somewhat lost) most of the time i create my own codeblocks project wich is a hassle. Also phising for the shell grep construct is not as nice as you can klick in a list and jump right to the file and line with a result. If there is already such a function you should also place it under Edit-> Search menu as i cant find it.
hmm i tried the grep tool extension, but its not the same as an internal search as it can 1. crash anjunta if there are a lot of results and simply adds them all into the result list (happened for example for search like "app" in gnome-shell ;) 2. you cant reach the results by double clicking the results line you have to fish out the file in the brwoser manually and search agian in the file or scroll a lot
