----------------------------------------
Summary: Fuzzy search for Go To File/Symbol/Type
Key: NETBEANS-2156
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-2156
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: utilities - Jump To
Affects Versions: Next
Environment: Windows 10 - 64bit, NetBeans 10, JDK 10.0.2
Reporter: Christian Lenz
When I want to jump to a file and I don't want to write the whole name, I use
only a couple of characters, called fuzzy search (like Java code completion is
using that). So when I open Go To File and write "page" I will got the result
of all what page is inside AND and this is new, everything what have "p a g e"
is inside.
So I was searching for the package.json and when I type "page" it should be
found too. Not on top, if there is more like "*page*bla" or ""*Page*Bar" or
"Bla*Page*Bla/bla*page*bla" but it should be in the result list. So when I now
search for "page.js" or "pagejs" it should be more clear what I want to find ->
"*pa*cka*ge*.*js*on". This is how VS Code handles it and IDEA too. Maybe
Eclipse too, but I don't know it.
This will makes live easier. I know that the result list will be big but type
one or two more characters to filter the list. That's it. See no problems with
that.
