Is it possible to search for terms (such as method names) in .class files (from Referenced Libraries) in eclipse (I am able to view them automatically with JD Java Decompiler, so if I go through various class files I can find what I'm looking for visually or by searching each individual file). I've had a similar question about locating classes and was told to use ctrl + alt + h, which allows you to locate the class hierarchy of a given class in a .class file, but that method does not seem to allow one to find interfaces by name or constructs such as methods or variables.

Ctrl+H->Java Search->Search for Method, etc, etc
