#MAIN METHOD SHORTCAT IN ENTELLIJ INSTALL#

Going back to create a new project again, I was able to (yes, I Stack Overflowed my way to glory here – I rather idiotically selected the ‘jre’ folder) hit New and navigate to the root JDK folder under my default Java install directory, as follows: JDK Directory Selection in the IntelliJ IDEA. I downloaded and installed this package without any bother. I do wonder if I could rock a twirled moustache too: Someone needs an Optician. On a side note, whoever bought me this mug needs to take a trip to the opticians. Time for a cup of tea at this point find a suitable beverage for yourself as you continue to read through, you’ve earned it by hanging on this long :-).

My first issue appeared to be the fact that I didn’t have the Software Development Kit installed (JDK in this instance), so I navigated here to grab one, for 64 bit Windows in my case: Copying and Pasting from Stack Overflow.Ĭreate New Project seems like the way to go! I proceeded using the following tutorials by the way, should you wish to follow along: Besides, I have read and digested the following books, so I’m feeling ready: Googling the Error Message.

The remit of this blog post is just to show how to create a code snippet, no matter how simple that is. I’m hoping that (although I’ve gazed at a fair bit of Java through my time) not having written a single line of Java is not going to be a ‘blocker’ to success -). So, we’re ready to rock and roll being presented with the following screen: IntelliJ Start Screen. Again, I’m not really doing a review but I really liked the ease of the setup process here being accustomed to Visual Studio for the main part I can often see times when (despite all of the functionality it does offer, I’m not bashing on it) it’s heavyweight nature does show through, not always for the best. After reading those pesky ‘policies’ (that we all read in minute detail of course!) you get, which is a nice touch, an opportunity to pick a theme (for those who know me, its dark themes all the way) and customise/install plugins.

On running the application you get prompted to import previous, custom settings. java file extension would be associated with this IDE. I opted for the desktop shortcut (I have a messy desktop) and rigged it so that anything with a. Installing the product is, as you would expect, a next…next…next affair. Let’s get this install done and figure out a) how to write some Java and b) encapsulate something into a snippet. What I will say is that language support beyond Java is most certainly a thing (.Net languages are out, as you may expect) and if you’re using Git you appear to be golden in relation to the Community edition only Ultimate supports TFS. For anyone wondering what the different offerings entail you can navigate to the Compare Edition page and have a gander. As I’m not doing a review per se on this software I won’t dig into the particulars of each edition too heavily. There you’ll find links to a Community and Ultimate edition (with Ultimate having a free, thirty-day trial). To get mitts on this IDE is simple enough. Martins ‘The Clean Coder’, which I’ve just finished digesting, so it seems most worthy of an intellectual punt!

This received a solid mention in Robert C. This IDE has been selected out of the magic hat just because I wanted to go for something that I haven’t heard too much about before, rather than a name more frequently bandied about, such as the NetBeans IDE. Today I’m looking at IntelliJ IDEA, a JetBrains IDE for coding in Java (and more than just that, if the tag line is anything to go by). Finding myself in the mood to be a ‘completionist’ however, I really should make something of this coding snippets mini-series and pack a few more of these in before I call it quits.

I have an amazing, now completely out of control and rather feral, list of topics in my ‘to blog about’ list. On the subject of the word honest, this style of post is a chance to be authentic and more in the moment, even if I do trip up here and there and expose myself as the occasional fool it’s a chance to see my internal monologue as I go about trying to learn something on the fly. Why did I do this? Just an interesting experiment in all honesty. A little bit of a departure from my usual posts whereby I research a subject and then give you a condensed and refined product. I’ve written this purely ‘in the heat of battle’, whilst I was trying to illustrate how to do this. This is somewhat of an experimental post.
