Question

Say I have two Java classes, TradeType and InstrumentType. I know that somewhere in my codebase there is a method that maps from TradeType to InstrumentType.

How can I use Structural Search in Intellij to say

"find me all methods that have a single parameter of type TradeType and which return InstrumentType"

Was it helpful?

Solution

Search template:

class $Class$ { 
    InstrumentType $MethodName$(TradeType $Parameter$);
}

Then click Edit variables..., and set the following for the MethodName variable:

  • Occurrences count: Unlimited
  • This variable is target of the search

Also pay attention to what the scope of the search is.
