public class JavaSearchParticipant
extends SearchParticipant

A search participant describes a particular extension to a generic search mechanism, allowing thus to perform combined search actions which will involve all required participants A search scope defines which participants are involved. A search participant is responsible for holding index files, and selecting the appropriate ones to feed to index queries. It also can map a document path to an actual document (note that documents could live outside the workspace or no exist yet, and thus aren't just resources).

JavaSearchParticipant

public JavaSearchParticipant()
Method Detail

beginSearching

public void beginSearching()
Description copied from class: SearchParticipant
Notification that this participant's help is needed in a search.

This method should be re-implemented in subclasses that need to do something when the participant is needed in a search.

Overrides:
beginSearching in class SearchParticipant

doneSearching

public void doneSearching()
Description copied from class: SearchParticipant
Notification that this participant's help is no longer needed.

This method should be re-implemented in subclasses that need to do something when the participant is no longer needed in a search.

Overrides:
doneSearching in class SearchParticipant

getDescription

public java.lang.String getDescription()
Description copied from class: SearchParticipant
Returns a displayable name of this search participant.

This method should be re-implemented in subclasses that need to display a meaningful name.

Overrides:
getDescription in class SearchParticipant
Returns:
the displayable name of this search participant

getDocument

public SearchDocument getDocument(java.lang.String documentPath)
Description copied from class: SearchParticipant
Returns a search document for the given path. The given document path is a string that uniquely identifies the document. Most of the time it is a workspace-relative path, but it can also be a file system path, or a path inside a zip file.

Implementors of this method can either create an instance of their own subclass of SearchDocument or return an existing instance of such a subclass.

Specified by:
getDocument in class SearchParticipant
Parameters:
documentPath - the path of the document.
Returns:
a search document

indexDocument

public void indexDocument(SearchDocument document,
                          IPath indexPath)
Description copied from class: SearchParticipant
Indexes the given document in the given index. A search participant asked to index a document should parse it and call SearchDocument.addIndexEntry(char[], char[]) as many times as needed to add index entries to the index. If delegating to another participant, it should use the original index location (and not the delegatee's one). In the particular case of delegating to the default search participant (see SearchEngine.getDefaultSearchParticipant()), the provided document's path must be a path ending with one of the Java-like extensions or with '.class'.

The given index location must represent a path in the file system to a file that either already exists or is going to be created. If it exists, it must be an index file, otherwise its data might be overwritten.

Clients are not expected to call this method.

Specified by:
indexDocument in class SearchParticipant
Parameters:
document - the document to index
indexPath - the location in the file system to the index

indexResolvedDocument

public void indexResolvedDocument(SearchDocument document,
                                  IPath indexPath)
Description copied from class: SearchParticipant
Indexes the given resolved document in the given index. A search participant asked to index a resolved document should process it and call SearchDocument.addIndexEntry(char[], char[]) as many times as needed to add only those additional index entries which could not have been originally added to the index during a call to SearchParticipant.indexDocument(org.aspectj.org.eclipse.jdt.core.search.SearchDocument, IPath). If delegating to another participant, it should use the original index location (and not the delegatee's one). In the particular case of delegating to the default search participant (see SearchEngine.getDefaultSearchParticipant()), the provided document's path must be a path ending with one of the Java-like extensions or with '.class'.

The given index location must represent a path in the file system to a file that either already exists or is going to be created. If it exists, it must be an index file, otherwise its data might be overwritten.

Clients are not expected to call this method.

Overrides:
indexResolvedDocument in class SearchParticipant
Parameters:
document - the document to index
indexPath - the location in the file system to the index

resolveDocument

public void resolveDocument(SearchDocument document)
Description copied from class: SearchParticipant
Resolves the given document. A search participant asked to resolve a document should parse it and resolve the types and preserve enough state to be able to tend to a indexResolvedDocument call subsequently. This API is invoked without holding any index related locks or monitors.

Clients are not expected to call this method.

Overrides:
resolveDocument in class SearchParticipant
Parameters:
document - the document to resolve
See Also:
SearchParticipant.indexResolvedDocument(org.aspectj.org.eclipse.jdt.core.search.SearchDocument, IPath), SearchDocument.requireIndexingResolvedDocument()

locateMatches

public void locateMatches(SearchDocument[] indexMatches,
                          SearchPattern pattern,
                          IJavaSearchScope scope,
                          SearchRequestor requestor,
                          IProgressMonitor monitor)
                   throws CoreException
Description copied from class: SearchParticipant
Locates the matches in the given documents using the given search pattern and search scope, and reports them to the given search requestor. This method is called by the search engine once it has search documents matching the given pattern in the given search scope.

Note that a participant (e.g. a JSP participant) can pre-process the contents of the given documents, create its own documents whose contents are Java compilation units and delegate the match location to the default participant (see SearchEngine.getDefaultSearchParticipant()). Passing its own SearchRequestor this participant can then map the match positions back to the original contents, create its own matches and report them to the original requestor.

Implementors of this method should check the progress monitor for cancelation when it is safe and appropriate to do so. The cancelation request should be propagated to the caller by throwing OperationCanceledException.

Specified by:
locateMatches in class SearchParticipant
Parameters:
indexMatches - the documents to locate matches in
pattern - the search pattern to use when locating matches
scope - the scope to limit the search to
requestor - the requestor to report matches to
monitor - the progress monitor to report progress to, or null if no progress should be reported
Throws:
CoreException - if the requestor had problem accepting one of the matches

selectIndexes

public IPath[] selectIndexes(SearchPattern pattern,
                             IJavaSearchScope scope)
Description copied from class: SearchParticipant
Returns the collection of index locations to consider when performing the given search query in the given scope. The search engine calls this method before locating matches.

An index location represents a path in the file system to a file that holds index information.

Clients are not expected to call this method.

Specified by:
selectIndexes in class SearchParticipant
Parameters:
pattern - the search pattern to consider
scope - the given search scope
Returns:
the collection of index paths to consider

selectIndexURLs

public IndexLocation[] selectIndexURLs(SearchPattern pattern,
                                       IJavaSearchScope scope)
