title: Eclipse: How to find enum literals?
body: <h3>Background</h3>
  <p>I just recently had to transition from Idea to Eclipse.</p>
  <h3>What I am looking for</h3>
  <p>I am looking for an enum somewhere in my workspace or the dependencies. It should have literals like &quot;EMPTY&quot; or &quot;TOO_LARGE&quot;.</p>
  <h3>Question</h3>
  <p>In Idea, I could just use the usual class search CTRL+N for this and type the literal name. But in Eclipse, using the Type or Resource searches ignore Enum literals. How can I reconfigure Eclipse, or how can I perform a search for literals?</p>
  <h3>Duplicate edit</h3>
  <p>There is <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38212558/what-is-the-eclipse-equivalent-of-intellij-ctrl-n" title="here">another question</a> about the equivalent of Idea's CTRL+N in Eclipse which seems the same, but in fact is not. My question is about the aspect of the CTRL+N search in Idea where you could even find enum literals as if they were own types. I miss this feature a lot, because it's so neccessary for reusing code.</p>
  <h3>Summary of the answer</h3>
  <p>As Andreas pointed out, there is a pretty good way to find enum literals in Eclipse: Utilize Java Search and filter for field declarations.</p>
