Diana EAP

is there an RSS feed to the Diana EAP?

I'd like to see support for Jetty the same way Tomcat is supported.

When will the next eap be released?

When will the next eap be released?

Any news on a new 8.0 eap? It's been about a month.

Mac OS X 10.5.2 can't run this app.

What time jetgroovy can use in Diana?

IntelliJ is awesome!  It is the main reason I love being a Java developer!  Keep up the good work!

is there any way to debug flex using browser, not standalone flashplayer? or connect to swf or debugger?

Anyone else unable to maximize a file by double clicking on the file tab?

when will the python support roll out?

Used intellij for years - it is the best. Everyday I see Eclipse users suffer. Keep up the good work.

cut and past isn't working correctly on Mac OS X 10.5.3

basic code completion isn't working

does anyone else encountering similar issues 

Cannot maximise a file either by double clicking on an editor tab.

drag&drop support like in whole os x would be great.
adding existing files to projects via drag&drop or even add plugins via drag&drop if i downloaded them (from plugin sailers like sde for idea) and so on.
keep up good work. it is every day nice to work with idea

An Error when use Ctrl+T update project from subversion

<stacktrace edited out>

decent drag & drop on windows / mac os x would be wonderful !

Can not compile Java Web Project, it is a perfectly working project on Intellij v7

Blame Java EE Integration

<stacktrace edited out>

There is "transparency for floating windows" option. Can you also support transparency in editor windows? And in Project, Structure etc.. It's cosmetics but maybe simple to implement and I like to see my wallpaper in the background

The other thing is reopening multiple projects at startup. Let's say I work on couple of projects in parallel and after next startup I'd like to have them reopened again. Is it possible to have "reopen last project on startup" feature extended this way?

Thanks.

it works for me with mac os x leopard and Java 6. But there are still no support for tapestry 5

In my template-files (*.tml) I still have the problem that idea don't recognize the namespace "http://tapestry.apache.org/schema/tapestry_5_0_0.xsd". I have no autosugestion in the template-files, that realy sucks! Is anybody else here, who are using IntelliJ IDEA with tapestry 5 ???

 thanks.

HTML preview on OS X doesn't work anymore!

What about ZK framework support?

When shall we expect final release? How far are you? Leos

Can idea8 offer a uml plugin which can not only generate java code from uml but also generate uml from java code.I hope so.

Well, JetGroovy become more and more powerful. If I'm correct, IDEA can do autocomletion to objects without particular type specification. Also I'm very pleased to have Freemarker support from the box. But disappointed - still no Resin support! Hey, Jetbrains, Resin is popular!

HTML Preview on Mac still broken - not for the first time bugs on Mac have little to no priority. Very disappointed!

Funny bug with 8.0M1 on Vista: I cannot exitIDEA. It just won't close.

It really surprises me for how long html preview on mac os x has now been broken ...

(other developers I talked to report the same problem btw)

are web developers a diminishing minority?

are you basically telling us we must run windows or linux?

how can this be serious?

will idea 7 be the last usable edition?

questions, questions, questions....

"Due to a major internal refactoring, we have made a significant number of backward incompatible changes..."

If it's a backward incompatible change, then it's not a refactoring, is it? Haha...

I love this IDE (well, versions 4 - 7. haven't tried this 8 yet). I have the exact opposite reaction to the guy at Cafe au Lait - I tried out Eclipse 3.3, and I'm also using Flex Builder 3 (which is basically a re-branded Eclipse) on a daily basis for over a year now, and the Eclipse platform is hands-down much more annoying than IntelliJ. You should see the way Eclipse tries to popup up a SCM checkout confirmation dialog and an auto-complete popup at the same time. They don't even do things like auto-focus when you mouse over the different sub-windows (although IntelliJ does seem to have a bug around this, it only captures mouse focus and not keyboard focus - but the main use case is scrolling with the mouse wheel through a list, it's minor). And the palty level of refactoring support in Eclipse is incomparable to the numerous refactorings possible in IntelliJ. And Eclipse's refactoring implementation is pathetic! For example, it goes like this: Activate menu item or keyboard shortcut for refactoring a field name. Wait about 8 seconds for it to finish indexing names, then a dialog popup comes up prompting for the new name. Enter new name. Wait about 3 seconds for it to go through and refactor. Do about 5 minutes of work before finding out it didn't properly rename everything. That's how it is, folks! The point about "standard" IDE keybindings might have some validity, but I use the Emacs keymap and don't have an issue with it - I think it's more a personal thing. My philosophy is that if you view the IDE as a tool for productivity, you should invest some effort into learning to use the tool. One might give cars as an example (they have the same interface of steering wheel and pedals, good if you want to switch cars), and I might give handguns as an example (they have so many different types of safeties, many of which are manufacturer-specific, and marksmen learn to use gun, including their various features). You want to be the old granny who gets a new car from grateful kids, and be able to drive? Or do you want to be the marksman, trying to be the best you can with your tools?

My biggest gripe with IntelliJ is that it is too big. And expensive. It's not "open-source" enough (or at all, really) which conflicts with my RMS-leaning socialist tendencies. But comparing it as an IDE, it's pretty dang good.

What a rant. Sorry!

When will the next milestone be released?

Any chance you guys can place IDEA 8.0 M1 in a non EXE format for downloads. The network administrators here have us in a police state with WEBSENSE blocking files with an *.exe pattern.

Thanks guys... And of course, as always, YOU GUYS JUST ROCK!!!

Ira Klotzko

Priority 1. Support well Java and the frameworks as Swing/Java2D, JavaFX, Tapestry 5, Wicket, Stripes, JSF, Spring MVC, JSP/Servlets, Spring 2.5(OSGI), Hibernate and JPA.

Priority 2. Support Python/Django, Ruby/Rails, Groovy/Grails, HTML/CSS, Flex3.

Priority 3. Get rid of the bugs and crashes IDEA 8 m1 is having now and is very slow

I suggest get rid of seam, struts2 and scala those have not momentum and are not that great.

Keep struts support just for legacy.

i guess there is a issue with global code styling...
i do need to reload my own settings after every restart of idea...
how can i say idea to use my styling by default instead of styling shipped with idea??

Please don't forget to support maven 2.0...

Please consider giving out an OSX version built with Java 6.

Please consider at least LOOKING into the focus stealing bug (#IDEABKL-3849) that has been around on Linux since 2005! This has been a major data destroyer in the past, and also a major incentive for me to stop paying you guys, and switching to an other IDE.

I'm posting here since the forums aren't accessible. Build 8769 is totally unusable (stack overflows and broken code inspection and completion). 8733 is much more stable. I'm running windows xp.

8769 is leaking memory badly. It could be related to the fact that the syntax analysis is going on a forever loop...  Is there a way to get a previous build?

I have switched from idea 7 to 8 (8664).   The only problem I have is that double click on an IPR file doesnt open a project if idea is already open.

It should open a project in a new frame like version 7 does.   Where can I log this bug ?

please vote http://www.jetbrains.net/jira/browse/IDEA-19670

8810 has a problem with "Change signature of <Method>" intension action. It causes the IDE to stuck before opening the refactoring dialog.

It does not happen always but if I find a method that this refactoring make the IDE stuck it does so consistently when I try again after IDE restart.

Hi!

 Since 8810 (or before, but still in 8823)  there is a bug regarding maven-task execution on run. It seems the "Run Configuration" is not running at all if there is a "Before Launch"-Config with a "Run Maven Goal".

Regards,

Dirk

I won't upgrade unless Diana behaves nicely on OS X

http://www.jetbrains.net/jira/browse/IDEA-18900

Since #8858 on Mac OS X:

Small popup dialogs for code completion are frozen at their position in Diana code pane.  They can be neither closed, nor moved, nor focused.
Nothing helps to kill them until IDE restart. The popup has title with symbol name (e.g. variable name and its type), the body of hanging popup
is always "Choosing item with ->| will overwrite the rest of identifier after caret". Please take care of this problem. Thanks!

Any plan to include support for Android?  The idea-android plugin from Google is out of date (with the android SDK).  It would really be nice to be able to dev for android on IntelliJ.

The performance guidelines for Intellij IDEA state that a person should keep the tree view on the left set to Packages instead of Project but the problem is that certain artifacts that a person works with like Spring context files are hidden away. It would be nice if the Spring configuration failes maybe taken from the facet set could be shown in the tree similar to the way that the Libraries are shown.

In 8858 build I have same blame with Subversion system, when I trying to add url.

When you are planning to release new build with fixed problem?

After installing 8.0M1 on Windows, I click "Run now" (or whatever the option is) on the last page of the install wizard.

Everything is ok.

Then I shut down IDEA and after that try and run it, and get a Windows popup sayign "The JVM could not be started. The main methods may have thrown an exception".

The only way I can start IDEA now is by defining the IDEA_JDK env var and using "idea.bat"!

Also I can't create a JIRA against the IDEADEV project - is this right?

In 8890 don't work SQL console

Hi,

 I'm using 8.0M1 and it's working real fine.

 Only problem I have is with maven project support.

It is common practice, in maven, to define properties, for example:

    <properties>
        <spring.framework.version>2.5.2</spring.framework.version>
        <java.libs.version>2.1-SNAPSHOT</java.libs.version>
        <axis2.version>1.3.0</axis2.version>
    </properties

 and use them for version of  dependencies. For example:

                <dependency>
                    <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
                    <artifactId>spring-aop</artifactId>
                    <version>$

</version>
                </dependency>

 When using a pom.xml like that, and later changing the property value, Idea reloads the pom.xml but doesn't change the libraries.

 Regards,

   GC

I'm experiencing a really annoying problem since upgrading to IDEA 8.  When I startup the IDE it parses through every single file in all the modules, every JAR i have configured as a resource, and even the configured JDK src zip files.  My IDE startup time is currently around 8-10 minutes until it is usable.  Also, after updating a module config, the file parsing dialog pops up again and parses through a lot of the same stuff again!  Is anyone else having similar issues and if so have you found a workaround?

All kinds of database consoles (SQL, hibernate) are still totally broken (since 8890).

In build 8890, if I run a maven goal with external maven the maven output window doesn't update until build is completed. If I use the embedded maven then maven output updates in real time.

Build 8940 no longer has option to run Maven goals using external or embedded maven. Also the Back/Foward buttons and Run/Debug drop down never updates.

The 8940 tar.gz seems to be corrupt.

Since build 8940 IntelliJ freezes many times in an hour for a few seconds on Leopard. I tried JDK5 and JDK6 but it makes no difference.

8975 crashed with out of permgenspace on my 64 bit ubuntu box after opening an EXTREMELY small project. Trying with 256m now.

Where's the source code for the maven integration plugin?

Intellisense for  xmlns:buttons="urn:jsptagdir:/WEB-INF/tags/buttons" declarations in jspx fileshave been broken since M1.

I was very surprised to see the announcement for the final version coming in 2 weeks considering the Ruby plug-in hasn't been available for the EAP for over a month! When can we expect to see the availability of Ruby in IDEA again??

Love most of the new features and I wait for new EAP releases.

However, the new settings system is UTTERLY incomprehinsiple... I hope you plan to provide a way to use the previous one that is sane... The everything in a huge list layout is very hard to sort out. I still can't figure out where I make simple changes to models, libraries, etc. which is what I'm doing 99.9% of the time. The rest of this stuff should and could be berried somewhere else. You just don't use it all that often.  

What happened to the antialiasing in the latest builds?  It looks like the awful antialiasing in Java 5.  Up until at least 8890 it was fine.  Is there a setting I'm missing?

I just tried moving to 8987 and tried to run one of my projects (Seam/JSF/JPA/JBoss). This project did and still does work in 8890. When I attempt to interact (log in in this case) I get exceptions that the persistence factory is not found in JNDI. I traced this back. My persistence.xml file lives outside my source tree, and in previous versions was being placed into the META-INF dir at build time via the EJB facets external resources mechanism. That appears to be lost in the latest EAP, which seems like a bug.

I can't be sure that the setting is even being loaded since I can't figure out how to accomplish anything in the new settings system.

I am using 8995 and when I edit Java code I somtimes get "java.lang.AssertionError: Previous:HighlightInfo".

After I fix the code the "code analysis" square at the right top  is green but I still have a red mark on the "code analysis" bar.

Once this exception is thrown it keeps appearing non-stop untill I restart IDEA. 

Teamcity question - from big number of releases I still have exceptions popping up in Idea and these are related to Teamcity suppoort in IDE. From some number of releases I also cannot commit via TC at all and this is really annoying (makes IDE unusable). It says "Cannot commit.. changes list cannot be found" or sth similar. It happens on Linux 64 and on Windows (32). Latest release which does allow me to do commit is #8823. But exceptions are here from pretty long before this #.

Question is - is Teamcity plugin not longer supported or I just need to wait? If the latter then how long?

Thanks.

Oh, the current build ("IntelliJ IDEA 8.0 Release Candidate 2 (Diana build 9008)") already requires an IDEA 8 license, which I do not have (my IDEA 7 license is much older than August 31st 2008).

I guess that the "License" text should be updated to reflect this.

What to save and refresh with startup page (or when any projects are closed)

Where does Idea 8.0 take settings from? It seems it has imported some settings from Idea 7, but probably not the latest as for example some keyboard shortcuts I have created recently are different. What do I have to do to make 8.0 import complete settings from 7.0? I have tried export settings + import settings from file menu, but that didn't worked (settings stayed the same). Are there any files I have to delete or something?

I had some EAP versions of 8.0 installed and I'm running Mac OS X 10.5, if that is important.

Thanks.

any news about the tab-reorder feature? (i'm using IDEA 8 #9008)

TIA

I have been using IntelliJ since version 4.5.

I downloaded 8.0 today to check it out, and was disappointed to find that I can no longer place my editor tabs on the left.  Several of my coworkers and I love that option and use it religiously.  Personally, I'd rather forego all of 8.0's enhancements and continue using 7.0, just for that option.

So, what happened to that setting?  Any plans to bring it back?

Thank goodness! I finally see my editor tabs again with Mac Os X  (but this shouldn't that have been a bug fix long ago ? ....)

Changes window -> Incoming tab: each incomming item duplicates (but sometime some of them renders 3 times). I use Subversion 1.4 format

In 9144 sometimes the editor loses focus and the keys are not responding. Pressing "Esc" returns the focus to the editor.

Where can I find changelog for non-IDEADEV issues (e.g. for jetgroovy)?

Nothing

Where is lost button "kill process" in debug window?

in build 9647 i think "idea.properties" file has a typo, because of that we need both folders .IntelliJIdea80 and .IntelliJIdea8x in user folder!

the relevant content of the file are as follows:

# path to IDEA config folder. Make sure you're using forward slashes
idea.config.path=${user.home}/.IntelliJIdea80/config

# path to IDEA system folder. Make sure you're using forward slashes
idea.system.path=${user.home}/.IntelliJIdea8x/system

# path to user installed plugins folder. Make sure you're using forward slashes
idea.plugins.path=${user.home}/.IntelliJIdea80/config/plugins

is this a typo or will remain permanent?

if its a typo which folder will select to be permanent?

Will the Ruby plugin be working again soon?

День добрый.

Извените, что по русски. От английского за весь день и так устаю....

Есть вопрос.

У меня часто бывает такой юз-кейс - нужно что-то найти (ctrl+shift+F) и поменять после в 30и из 45и найденых местах в XMLях например.

В #9684 что-то глючить Preview начал немного - когда курсором вверх-вниз по результатам поиска ходишь он фокус на файл показывает а не на место в файле. Приходиться жать Down-Up-Down что не приятно, но жить можно думаю....

Но вот есть ли какой-то аналог кнопки F3 только что бы не только по файлу гуляла, а и по результатам через файлы прыгала. Т.е. если есть у меня в результате 40 мест в 35и файлах = F3 нажал и следующий файл подсветился. Очень уж напрягает мышкой клацнул - клавой заменил - опять мышой клацнул - клавой заменил.

Понимаю, что мелочь - куда там до Ruby support и других высших материй. Но пользуюсь IDEA с версии 3 - а как решить такую annoying юзабилити проблему (все ж наверно рефакторят XML. И всем наверно бывает нужно пройтись глазами когда мест не так много как для применения mass impact инструментов) - никак не знаю.

Или подскажите куда написать, что бы получить ответ.

Спасибо,

Андрей.

Most Excellent!! Integrating the ability to share settings between multiple instances. You guys rock,

IDEA 8 seems to replicate the behavior of IDEA 7 in that it is once again significantly slower than any previous release.

 Please shift your focus in IDEA's development to becoming an IDE that is reliable, robust, and fast, and feature rich (int that order). If I read the change logs, I keep asking myself: "Why all these features? Please just make the existing ones work reliably! Please fix bugs and performance problems!".

I even caught myself last week thinking about switching to Eclipse, something I would not have dreamt of in the last couple of years.

How can I run IDEA on 64bit windows?
i just installed 64bit JDK and ran idea.bat to launch IDEA as a 64bit module, but it could not load "yjpagent.dll".

9821 is seriously broken. Code analysis collapsed and refactorign broke by code. 9815 was good.

In 9825, if I close a tab the structure panel does not update to show the structure of the new current tab (though this does not appear to happen all the time)

I've also noticed a problem when I open some machine-generated java files we use where I work, the UI redraw thread seems to hang while the code analyzer is looking at the class.  The file in question is similar to this:

I can send an actual example, but I'd rather not since it may or may not be company-proprietary information.  The general pattern is that there's an enclosing abstract class with MANY concrete subclasses declared as public static inner classes, each with their set of get/set methods for various properties.  These are auto-generated off of various message format specifications we use.  The file is about 7,500 lines, about 350KB.

Anyway, the UI locks up for sometimes 10-30 seconds when opening these files, and is generally very slow when navigating and editing.

Code analysis (the green light which we all require to be able to focus on code) still stops working sporadically in 9825. Was good in 9815

Does 9825 seem to put a higher load on the system opening projects?  My machine (Ubuntu Linux 8.10, quad core) I get a load of like 6 opening our project, and in 9821 it only goes up to 2.5 or 3.  I'm not positive it's just IntelliJ, but 9821 seems to run smoother.

With SVNKit 1.3.0 now available, will we see Subversion 1.6 support soon?

For gods sake, please let us turn off the annoying splash screen during startup.

It really sucks that I can't read my mail, just because I've started IntelliJ in a totally different virtual screen and the darn splash screen appears on top of all windows.

Several people already asked for this, so please start to listen to your customer. Just make a checkbox somewhere and turn it on by default if you like. I just want to be able to turn off this behaviour.

Thanks a lot!

When I start IntellliJ it says that build 9852 is available, but EAP only has 9848 as the latest

I am unable to report bugs (exceptions) because of the 9852 / 9848 issue. IntelliJ refuses to send a report because there's a newer version available - which there isn't!

Am I blind or I don't see any link to download IntelliJ EAP bundle. How do I get it?

what is happening with 8.1.4 release ???
