I assume the heart of the problem is that the guys who develop RDi do not develop RPG applications with RDi.
It was some time ago that I worked with Eclipse RCP so my memory is
faded. I remember looking to extend the standard find/replace dialogue
and being unable to find a way to do it. It seemed to me that I had to
write a whole new one from scratch. Well, I could copy the Eclipse
source and work from that, but I seem unable to do 'a little' Eclipse
development - it takes me a very long time to put all the concepts
together in my head.
If they really had to write their own find/replace, that explains why it
behaves differently. And it is different to the Eclipse find/replace
because of the column-restricted search.
So here is a funny question. Is the column selection in the RDi find
dialogue necessary for you (and by 'you' I mean the list)? I haven't
got the time to research it this instant, but I think it is possible to
create a user action that invokes the default. In Eclipse 4, it is part
of
\eclipse422\plugins\org.eclipse.ui.workbench.texteditor_3.8.0.v20120523-1310.jar
- org.eclipse.ui.texteditor.FindReplaceDialog
I think that to incorporate this as a user action I need to tinker the
CLASSPATH or copy the jar file to the place my RDi CLASSPATH can find
it. Once it's a user action, it can be assigned to a key sequence.
Another thought - very ephemeral - is that I might be able to override
Ctrl-F in my RDi / Eclipse profile.
