Description Adam Kiezun

for a compilation unit A.java:
<source>
package p;
public class A{
}
class A1{
}
</source>

calling IJavaProject.findType("p.A1") returns null

NameLookup incorrectly assumes that a top-level class X is always defined in a 
file called X.java

Comment 2 Jerome Lanneluc

Namelookup would have to open every single file in p (and maybe more) to find 
this type.

Use the search engine instead.
