Opening a type in the Package Explorer view

You can open the Package Explorer on any type that is included on a project's class path.

1. From the menu bar, select Navigate > Go To > Type. The Go to Type dialog opens.

2. In the Choose a type field, begin typing an expression to narrow the list of available types, using wildcards as needed. As you type, the list is filtered to display only types that match the current expression.

3. In the Matching types list, select a type. When there is more than one definition of a type, then select a package in the Qualifier list.

4. Click OK when you are done. The selected type is displayed in the Package Explorer.

Note: Revealing may not be possible if Package Explorer filters are applied.
