How can I find references of a class in Eclipse?

Question

I have a java class in my project, how can I find all of the places it's being used? Similar to Visual Studios find references.

Thanks.

Put the mouse cursor/caret on the class or method name in source code and hit Ctrl+Shift+G.

do you know by any chance the equivalent of this in EMacs once you've set up your ETags? – Gubatron Sep 29 '11 at 03:18

Right-click the class in project explorer, or in the editor
Select References -> Project (or the other options, if they fit your case better)

Just a follow up since I was looking for all references for ALL public methods of a class in Eclipse:

This gives call hierarchy results for each method you selected. Hope this helps!

Edit: used the actual LIST item formatter
