How do I perform a simple search in the CodeWarrior IDE?

You can either use the Search menu in the menu bar or select the Edit > Find/Replace command. However, there is a difference. The Search menu displays the commands C/C++ , Search , File , and Text .

• C/C++ - Opens the search dialog on the C/C++ search page
• Search - Opens the search dialog for your current editor
• File - Opens the search dialog on the File search page
• Text - Opens the submenu for full-text search in given scope (workspace, project, file or working set)

Selecting the Select menu opens the Search dialog box that includes two specialized tabs: File Search and C/C++ Search .

Whereas, the Find/Replace command displays the Find/Replace dialog box that lets you search for an expression in the active editor, and replace the expression with a new expression.

Thus, for a simple find and replace use Edit > Find/Replace .
