Using the Data Model Search page, you can search for text that is contained in the name, label, or description of any object within a data model resource. The search results are listed in the Eclipse Search view.
Object with name
Specify the expression that you want to search. Use the following wildcards to narrow the scope of the search:
  • "*" matches any set of characters, including the empty string
  • "?" matches for any character
  • "\" is the escape for a literal; if you want to search for an asterisk, question mark, or backslash character, type a backslash before it to indicate that you are not using these characters as wildcards (e.g., "\*", "\?", or "\\")
Case sensitive
Select if you want the text search to be case sensitive.
Regular expression
Select if you want to search using a regular expression. The regular expression that you enter is checked for syntax errors.
Scope
Specify the scope of your search. You can search the whole workspace, pre-defined working sets, previously selected resources, or projects enclosing the selected resources.
