Description

Before Code

Change To C Style Comment

This intention converts one of more "end-of-line" comments to block comments. 

//comment line 1
//comment line 2 
x = 0x30

/*comment line 1
comment line 2 */
x = 0x30

Change To End Of Line Comment

This intention converts a block comment to one or more "end-of-line" comments. 

/*comment line 1
comment line 2 */
x = 0x30

//comment line 1
//comment line 2
x = 0x30

Conditional To Elvis

This intention changes appropriate conditional operator to it's Elvis represenation. 

public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    return a!=null?a:b
}

public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    return a?:b
}

Convert Closure Arg To It

This converts an implicit call to a closure into an explicit call. 

def myClosure = {i -> print i}

def myClosure = {print it}

Convert G String To String

This intention converts selected GString literal into an equivalent String literal. 

x = "48"

x = '48'

Convert Integer To Decimal

This intention converts selected integer literal (written in either hexadecimal or octal notation)
into decimal notation. 

x = 0x30

x = 48

Convert Integer To Hex

This intention converts selected integer literal (written in either decimal or octal notation)
into hexadecimal notation. 

x = 48;

x = 0x30;

Convert Integer To Octal

This intention converts selected integer literal (written in either decimal or hexadecimal notation)
back into octal notation. 

x = 48;

x = 060;

Convert Parameter To Map Entry

This intention converts all occurrences of selected method or closure parameters to appropriate entries of parameter map. 

def foo(arg1, arg2, arg3) {
  use(arg1 + arg2 + arg3)
}

foo("Hello ", "world", "!")

def foo(args) {
  use(args.arg1 + args.arg2 + args.arg3)
}

foo(args1: "Hello, ", arg2: "world", arg3: "!")

Convert String To GString

This intention converts selected String literal into an equivalent GString literal. 

x = '48'

x = "48"

Demorgans Law

This intention replaces either a || b with !(!a && !b) or a && b with !(!a || !b) inside boolean expression. 

 public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    if (!a || !b) return;
} 
 public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    if (!(a && b)) return;
}

Expand Boolean

This intention replaces uses of boolean values with equivalent if-then-else statements,
if possible. 

public class X {
  boolean f(boolean a) {
    return a;
  }
}

public class X {
  boolean f(boolean a) {
    if(a){
        return true;
    }
    else{
        return false;
    }
  }
}

Flip Comparison

This intention reverses the order of evaluation of a comparison. 

public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    if (a < b) return;
}

public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    if (b > a) return;
}

Flip Conditional

This intention flips branches of the conditional operator. 

public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    return a>b?a:b
}

public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    return a<=b?b:a
}

Flip Conjunction

This intention reverses the order of evaluation of an '&&' or '||' expression. 

public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    if (a && b) return;
}

public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    if (b &&a) return;
}

For To Each

This intention replaces selected for..in statement with .each iterator and associated closure. 

for(x in [1, 2, 3])
{
   print(x)
}

[1, 2, 3].each{ x-> print(x) }

Indexed Expression Conversion

This intention converts access to an indexed value using "[]" to an equivalent call to a ".getAt()" or ".setAt()" method. 

x = y.getAt(z) 

x = y[z]

Indexing Method Conversion

This intention converts access to an indexed value using ".getAt()" or ".setAt()" methods to the equivalent [] form. 

x = y.getAt(z) 

x = y[z]

Java Style Properties Invocation

This intention changes Java-style properties invocation to Groovy-style. 

foo.setMyProperty(value)

foo.myProperty = value

Make Closure Call Explicit

This converts an implicit call to a closure into an explicit call. 

def Closure myClosure
myClosure(arg1, arg2)

def Closure myClosure
myClosure.call(arg1, arg2)

Make Closure Call Implicit

This converts an explicit call to a closure into an implicit call. 

def Closure myClosure
myClosure.call(arg1, arg2)

def Closure myClosure
myClosure(arg1, arg2)

Merge Else If

This intention merges the else branch of an if-else statement,
if the else contains nothing but a nested if-else statement. 

public class X {
  int f(int a) {
    if (a == 0) {
      return 0;
    }
    else {
      if (a == 1) {
        return 2;
      }
      else {
        return 18;
      }
    }
  }
}

public class X {
  int f(int a) {
    if (a == 0) {
      return 0;
    }
    else if (a == 1) {
      return 2;
    }
    else {
      return 18;
    }
  }
}

Merge If And

This intention merges if-else statement inside then-branch of another if-else into one. 

public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    if (a)
       if(b)
         return;
}

public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    if (a &&b)
         return;
}

Negate Comparison

This intention negates a comparison to it's opposite. 

public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    if (a < b) return;
}

public class X {
  void f(a,  b) {
    if (!(b >= a)) return;
}

Remove Parentheses From Method Call

This intention convert a top level method call with parentheses to the equivalent call without parentheses. 

println("Hello World")

println "Hello World"

Split Else If

This intention splits an else-if branch into an equivalent nested if statement. 

public class X {
  int f(int a) {
    if (a == 0) {
      return 0;
    }
    else if (a == 1) {
      return 2;
    }
    else {
      return 18;
    }
  }
}

public class X {
  int f(int a) {
    if (a == 0) {
      return 0;
    }
    else {
      if (a == 1) {
        return 2;
      }
      else {
        return 18;
      }
    }
