在 Intellij Idea 中从全局 JAR 文件中搜索字符串

Question

I am developing stomp+WebSocket using Intellij Idea. Now I need to know: how to search string from Intellij Idea global? For example, I got this error:

15:17:44.688]-[clientInboundChannel-59]-[org.springframework.web.socket.messaging.WebSocketAnnotationMethodMessageHandler]-{Searching methods to handle SEND /app/vehicle session=qnlerizz}
15:17:44.688]-[clientInboundChannel-59]-[org.springframework.web.socket.messaging.WebSocketAnnotationMethodMessageHandler]-{No matching methods.}

And I go to class WebSocketAnnotationMethodMessageHandler in spring-websocket.jar(Maven's jar) and find nothing about this string: No matching methods or Searching methods to handle . So I want to search where the message is. How to do?

What I have tried is the combination Ctrl + Shift + F but It does not work fine, I can't search from external jar. Double Shift can only search class.

Answer 1

• Go Ctrl + Alt + Shift + N

or

Navigate -> Symbol.. from menu

• Give your text to search.

Answer 2

In mac try Cmd + Shift + F , click scope, enter the keyword to search.

Answer 3

I think this -> How to search for a string in JAR files can help you.

For external library(jar) you can use this way

Looks like 'Find in Path', 'Custom Scope' set to 'Project and Libraries'
