How to navigate to a bookmark in eclipse 3.4.1?

Question

I am able to set bookmarks in a source file, but are there shortcut keys to navigate to a bookmark ? The navigate menu has a goto line. But that is not useful.

Solution 1

There is not a shortcut key but you can make appear a 'Bookmark view' which is located in Window > Show view > Other... and in the dialog inside the General classification, Then just double-click on the desired bookmark to reach it

Solution 2

If you check the "Bookmark" item in the "Next Annotation"/"Previous Annotation" toolbar dropdown item, you can use Ctrl+, and Ctrl+. to navigate to previous/next bookmark in the current opened file.

Solution 3

You can navigate to bookmarks using a plugin like:

Solution 4

I am using Quick Bookmarks Plugin which is very handy;

You can create named bookmarks using digits (e.g., 1 to 9):

Example:

Set bookmark #4 with [Alt+4]

Go to bookmark #4 with [Alt+Shift+4]

and so on.

Cool. At least I can still go to the bookmark view via CTRL+SHIFT+F7

In my Eclipse, Ctrl+F2 does nothing, Shift+F2 does something completely different (related to Javadoc, see here).
