Spring Web Flow Support in IntelliJ IDEA 12
One of the features added in the last IntelliJ IDEA 12 EAP is Spring Web Flow support. This post is a quick overview of the enhancements.
Watch Spring Web Flow Support in Action
Structure View
The Structure View now shows the structure of your flow.xml file.
Designer
Need to visualize your flow definition? Want to quickly add a few states and transitions without editing XML? Please welcome the completely rewritten Designer.
Expression Language
Spring EL is now fully supported in your flow.xml. Smart completion, navigation and refactoring are included.
All built-in and custom attributes are now available in your JSP pages as well.
Navigation
Use Navigate | Symbol to quickly navigate to any state from anywhere in your IDE. In the editor, gutter icons make it easy to navigate to any parent or inheriting element, while Navigate | Related File allows easy access to parent and inheriting flows as well as subflows.
Spring MVC Integration
Seamless access to all views provided by Spring MVC.
We have just touched a few important areas here. Stay tuned for more improvements soon.
