WebBeans (JSR-299) Binding Navigation in IntelliJ IDEA 9 (Maia)

Tuesday, March 10th, 2009

IntelliJ IDEA 9 will bring you the full support for WebBeans (JSR-299). The work is already in progress and some useful features will be available in the upcoming EAP releases.

One of them is field injection analysis with navigation to injected WebBeans. Have a look at the example to see how it works.

Here’s where we are:

Closure folding in IntelliJ IDEA 9 (Maia)

Tuesday, March 10th, 2009

IntelliJ IDEA 9 will bring you a clearer code reading experience with the support of folding for probably the most verbose Java constructions — anonymous classes. In IntelliJ IDEA 9 you will have an option to quickly collapse them to compact, easy to read form and back with a single keystroke.

 

Before:

Ordinary anonymous class syntax display

 

After:

Closures folding enabled

 

EAP users will be, as always, the first to try it out when we release the very first Maia builds, so make sure you’re on the list and watch for the news!
