Hello Murat,
should address your request.
What I daily use is:
- right click a class
- team --> annotate
Hope it helps,
Eric

Thanks for your answers.
I think that annotations show the changes in history in the piece of code. It also gives the information on change set and comment with popup. Actually I need a feature which can tell who and when a String is added to that class file. For example, a variable "fAccounts" is defined by someone else. I dont want to track the change sets in history because many people can work on the file. I want to search "fAccounts" by the search field and I expects that it automatically lists all the changes in history.
