Attachments:	Go to class window (NB 5.5.1) using CamelCase

Description fincatto 2007-11-07 18:32:18 UTC

One thing that was really useful in NB 5.5.1 was the go to class window using CamelCase.

I can quickly go to MyManagedBeanWithALongName just with MMBWALN, and in most cases just two or three chars I have one
result.

Especially if you have a DAO pattern, and you name your classes beginning with the database name (MySqlTableOne,
MySqlTableTwo, PostgresTableOne and PostgresTableTwo)... you have to write all the db name before type the class... :(

In my Opinion it is a DEFECT and not an ENHANCEMENT.

Read this page: http://www.netbeans.org/features/ide/editor.html

"Open any file or type with one quick keyboard shortcut, or go directly to a declaration with a single click. In the Go
To dialogs you can type in file or type names using camel case and even wild cards, and do a case sensitive search over
all open projects."

Yes, and it worked with version 5.5, but not with version 6.0.

ee:

Yesterday I've discovered that CamelCase doesn't work using "Go to file" window, but if you choose "Go to type", it
works as expected.
Although I think that Go to file should be able to do the same, the other works as well.

Comment 4 fincatto 2008-01-24 10:16:06 UTC

Yes. 
Works for me too. 
Thanks Pinheiro.
Closing the issue.

Comment 5 ee 2008-01-24 11:39:13 UTC

Yes, It works form me with the "Go to type" dialog but NOT with the "Go to File". The netbeans 6.0 feature list says 

"In the Go To dialogs you can type in _file_ or type names using camel case." 

So I think it should be work and it worked in NB 5.5. With the NB 6.0 I can't navigate with a CamelCase format file name.

I think it's a bug. fincatto please try the "Go to file" dialog too, and close again this issue if the 'Go to file' 
work's too.

reassigning to utilities (go to file dialog)

Comment 7 Petr Hrebejk 2008-04-24 11:35:28 UTC

There was no go to file in 5.5. Saying it worked is strange then.

Comment 8 markiewb 2013-05-01 20:12:31 UTC

Works for me. Tested in NB 7.3

For example CompletionUtil.java can be found in "Go to file" dialog via "CUti"
