What is Early Access Program

We at JetBrains believe that making tools for developers should greatly involve listening to developers. Our Early Access Program lets development community closely participate in discussions devoted to IntelliJ IDEA and influence development planning, from early stages onwards.
Early Access Program allows you to try pre-release versions of our software to evaluate features that will be added to the next release.

Be Careful

Icon

It is important to distinguish EAP from traditional pre-release software. Please note that the quality of EAP versions may at times be way below even usual beta standards.

Please report errors and feature requests to our issue tracker or discuss them in EAP users forum.

    I'd like to see ZK support :) That would be a killerfeature for many companies to buy IJ. Vote here.

  2. Brad Lane

    A major update(i.e. - pay to update)? I just bought my 12.0 license 3 months ago. 

    1. Maxim Mossienko

      These builds are EAP builds with free 30 day license per build. The release of Idea 13 will be at December.

    2. Charles Monteiro

      Same here, but I guess what bothers me is that it seems to be an Android centric release

      1. Mark Vedder

        There's still 7 months of development left until they release version 13. This is after all an Early Access Program. Android was likely just the first thing to be completed. I'm sure there will be plenty of good stuff besides Android in the final release in December and in the dozens of EAP (i.e. preview or beta) builds between now and then. This is just the first EAP release. Take a look at the IDEA 12 EAP and IDEA 12.1 EAP pages. Look through the release notes of each EAP release. You'll see it is not uncommon for one release to focus on a particular area or feature. Especially early on. Also look at the page's wiki history. You'll see how the listing of major features was added to over time.

        In my experience, JetBrains tends not to disclose what is going to be in a new release until they are highly confident it will definitely be there. They do not want to over-promise and then disappoint people. The above listing of features will grow beyond just Android I'm sure. You just need to be a little patient.

        <edit>

        p.s. This blog post will help explain why the first EAP was so focused on Android.

        </edit>

  3. Eugene Dzhurinsky

    Just to confirm - this update has nothing more than Android development? E.g any benefits for server-side development after upgrade?

  4. Jens Voss

    Thanks very much for opening the EAP - would you mind announcing it (and link to this page) on the EAP Community http://devnet.jetbrains.com/community/idea/eap?

  5. Alexander Silich

    Hi, I suggest to make Android layout preview on devices via special app. It should not be very difficult to make such app. But it will be a great feature.

  6. Chris Kimpton

    Hi,

    I dont see a ruby plugin and its not recognising ".rb" files now - I guess thats because the ruby plugin requires an update (and hopefully not that ruby support is being dropped from IDEA :)  )

    Thanks,Chris

    1. Chris Winters

      FWIW, the latest EAP (130.1105) with the latest Ruby plugin (5.4.0.20130620) seems to work.

      1. Chris Kimpton

        Thanks - I needed to "refresh" my plugin list (which took ages behind our corp firewall :( ) - but yes, its there - hurray. 

  7. Thai Dang Vu

    Unfortunately, I currently have to work with some weirdly-structured projects where code is in 2 different directories. These 2 directories contain some classes with the same name in the same package. People here use Eclipse with a plugin that allows them ignore / exclude classes in a directory if there is the same class in the same package elsewhere. So I'd like Intellij IDEA to be able to exclude individual classes (specifying them in Settings | Compiler | Excludes doesn't help because you still see duplication error in the editor).

    1. Yann Cébron

      Please ask questions in EAP forum http://devnet.jetbrains.com/community/idea/eap

      1. Thai Dang Vu

        Hi Yann, I don't think I understand what you meant. Should I ask questions about what? about how to do it in Idea? If it is it, then I already did. If it is something else, could you please say it in a different way? Thanks.

  8. Marko Kanala

    Installed this and it seems that JetGradle panel is missing ? Should this include support for Gradle builds ?

  9. Wes Clark

    After upgrading or installing fresh this latest version (130.1365), it won't start.  java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.intellij.openapi.diff.DiffApplication.  I'll try to fall back.

     INFO - ellij.ide.CommandLineProcessor - External command line: 
     INFO - ellij.ide.CommandLineProcessor - C:\Program Files (x86)\JetBrains\IntelliJ IDEA 130.1365\bin\.

    1. Wes Clark

      I figured out the root of the problem is that the latest IJ 13 EAP release won't start a project if Gosu debugger plugin is configured.  I've filed a bug report on that, but in the meantime I'd like to keep using IJ 13.  Is there an earlier version I can use that won't be "expired."

  10. Sergii Puliaiev

    Mac Mini Mid 2011  MacOS 10.8.2

    Java (build 1.7.0_04-b21)

    Unable to start application. Found fix in Yourtrack.

  11. Vladimir Lipkin

    Try to create simple JSP project. Select elements (like Application server - Tomcat 7). Instead of empty project I received message

    createComponent() returns null for: class com.intellij.persistence.database.django.DjangoDataSourcesUpdater

    Any suggestions? (I had same problem with previous EAP version). Ultimate edition Version 12 works fine. Mac - ML 10.8.4

    1. Maxim Mossienko

      Update Python plugin

  12. Mark Hofmann

    What about implementing a way to maximize a pane by double clicking it or via a shortcut as described here:

    http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-112485

    Requests for this kind of feature have been around a least since 2009 (!). Don't know how you feel about it, but since there's been so many requests for it and for such a long time, I think it could be worth to put a little bit of time into it.

    Mark

  13. Chuck Canning

    It would be nice if you could patch an expired EAP instead of having to do another full download.

    1. George Thiruvathukal

      I think it does work that way. I just got the upgrade available dialog box when launching Cardea (on Mac OS X) and was prompted to "Install and Restart" to 132.27. That was it - with one click it downloaded a small 9MB file, self-relaunched, applied the update, and self-relaunched again into 132.27. Worked pretty well.

  14. Johan Rylander

    I get error when opening Android gradle project. Error is about not being able to instantiate a class for NativeFileSystem. (sorry for loosing exact error message). IU-132.425 works fine so I am reverting to that.

    1. Johan Rylander

      Same here. Actually, before this version, I could open build.gradle but had to specify debugAssemble manually before running/debugging.

      Reverting as well :)

      1. Vladislav Soroka

        Hi Johan, what IJ version and OS do you use?  could you send IJ log file with the issue?

        1. Johan Rylander

          Link to build.gradle: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13404122/idea13error/build.gradle

          Os is Linux Mint 15 with Oracle Java 1.6 (1.6.0_45)

          Hm, I need to reinstall intellij to get to the log entry.. You will have to wait a while for that.

          1. Vladislav Soroka

            ok, please, use the latest IJ 13 EAP

            1. Johan Rylander

              Using above build.gradle with settings, I get:

    Am I alone, who has troubles with Teamcity intergration plugin(connecting to Teamcity 7.1.4) already in last few builds? Latest without problems is 132.197.

    Error message on IDEA startup is:

    com.intellij.openapi.diagnostic.Logger.setFactory(Lcom/intellij/openapi/diagnostic/Logger$Factory;)V: com.intellij.openapi.diagnostic.Logger.setFactory(Lcom/intellij/openapi/diagnostic/Logger$Factory;)V

    IDEA starts only with disabled integration plugin...
