 <p>The only way I can think of is to use <strong>Eclipse File Search dialog</strong> for all <em>.java</em> files and use this regular expression as input:</p> <pre><code>"(?s:/\*\*([^\*]|\*[^/])*?###INPUT###.*?\*/)" </code></pre> <p>and replace the ###INPUT### with what you are searching for.</p> <p>See this <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/689354/regex-for-matching-javadoc-fragments">other question</a> about this regex.</p>
