tags-query-replace and tags-search

[khentiamentiu]

I've just started using eclipse, and as an old, VERY old, emacs user, I got very used to the global search, and search and replace. I find these operations to be invaluable when maintaining or updating legacy code. Here are the operations I used all the time in C and C++:

M-x tags-query-replace
M-x tags-search

Note that the operations I want to do don't just find the files, but step through each file one at a time, presenting a window of code for each file, not just a line. Is there an equivalent in eclipse or the Emacs+ plugin that can be applied to a project, working set or working space?

Thanks!

RTFM:

Tags-like search behavior - Adapt the Emacs notion of tags-search to Eclipse.  Search for the minibuffer string in the Project, current Working Set, or Workspace.  The minibuffer string is pre-populated with the current selection, or next word (if on the same line) and can be edited by the user.  Add a convenience binding (Alt-,) as an analog to tags-loop-continue.        

• On tags-search (and find-tag if the optional features are loaded - see below) before the command is executed the current location is stored in a ring buffer.  Use pop-tag-mark (Alt-*) to return this location.
  
  
• Search in Project (Alt-S): Search for text in the Project
• Search in Working Set (Ctrl-U Alt-S): Search for text in the Current Working Set (or Workspace, if no Working Set)
• Search in Workspace (Ctrl-U Ctrl-U Alt-S): Search for text in the Workspace
• Occur: Search for text in the current buffer
• List Matching Lines: alias for Occur
  
  
• Alt-C - Toggle the case sensitivity of the tags-search
  
  
• Next (Alt-,): Navigate to the next search result (Eclipse provides Ctrl-, for previous search result)
  
  
• Pop Tag Mark (Alt-*): Pop back to where the last tags command (tags-seartch or find-tag) was invoked
