Options​

TypeNameDescriptionExample
StringmethodPatternOptional. A method pattern is used to find matching method invocations. For example, to find all method invocations in the Guava library, use the pattern: com.google.common..*#*(..).

The pattern format is <PACKAGE>#<METHOD_NAME>(<ARGS>).

..* includes all subpackages of com.google.common.
*(..) matches any method name with any number of arguments.

For more specific queries, like Guava's ImmutableMap, use com.google.common.collect.ImmutableMap#*(..) to narrow down the results.		java.util.List add(..)
BooleanmatchOverridesOptional. When enabled, find methods that are overrides of the method pattern.
