Spring IDE's Beans Search

Spring IDE leverages Eclipse's search facility to allow searching for beans defined in the BeansCoreModel.

Currently the following searches are supported:

• Search all beans with a certain name / ID

• Search all beans with the specified bean class

• Search all beans which has a given property

• Search all beans which references a bean with a specified name / ID
  Within the BeansXmlEditor this search can be performed via the same hotkey as used by JDT for it's reference search (<Ctrl>+<Shift>+G). To start this bean-class-reference-search place the cursor on a bean ID and use the hotkey.

• Search all child beans of a bean with a certain name / ID

The search string supports wildcards (* =any string, ? = any character, \ = escape for literals: *?\) and regular expressions.
