We've just pushed a major naming change to the IntelliJ codebase. For years, we hadn't set or followed any naming conventions for modules in the IntelliJ IDEA source, and things had gotten into a total mess (for example, we had a variety of names such as hg4idea, jetgroovy, ByteCodeViewer, testng_rt, and lang-impl). As usage of IntelliJ Platform grows, this has been causing more and more problems. So now we've finally put all names of modules in IntelliJ IDEA and IntelliJ Platform sources in order. This means that all 357 modules in the intellij-community project have been renamed. This

If you haven’t noticed yet, a fresh IntelliJ IDEA 14.1 EAP build is already available for download. In addition to bugfixes it also brings you enhanced Scratch Files feature. Scratch Files (Tools → New Scratch File) were introduced in IDEA 14.0 but now they become real files stored in IDE settings so they are shown in Project View, they survive IDE restarts and even can be executed: Get the new EAP build and share your feedback on our discussion forum or report any found bugs directly to the tracker.

Today we have published a new IDEA 14.1 EAP build. It fixes many bugs found in the first EAP build and also includes new features and improvements. In particular it supports automatic setup of GWT facets for projects imported from Gradle and allows you to view differences in a more compact form: If you experience any problems or want to suggest a new feature, feel free to write to our discussion forum or file issues directly to the issue tracker.

Since IntelliJ IDEA 11 the Mark Object action, which was previously available in JVM-based debuggers only, is also supported in JavaScript debuggers for Firefox and Chrome browsers. To mark an object press F11 on the corresponding node in any debugger tree and specify the label: After that the labeled object will be marked accordingly in all debugger views: By the way this feature also works in Flex debugger starting from IntelliJ IDEA 10.5.

Did you know what in IntelliJ IDEA 10.5 you can mark a directory as a Source Root or a Test Source Root right from the Project View? In IntelliJ IDEA 11 you also can create a library without opening the Project Structure dialog: just select jar files in the Project Structure and choose 'Add as Library...' in the context menu: The IDE will create a new library and will add it to the dependencies list of the selected module:

When you debug JavaScript code in IntelliJ IDEA 11 you can see the most important properties of an object without expanding its node: By default the 'id' and 'name' properties are shown for each object but you can add your own properties in Settings | Debugger | JavaScript: This feature works for both Firefox and Chrome JS debuggers.
