IntelliJ IDEA 2024.2.1 Is Out

Julia Shashkova

We’ve just released IntelliJ IDEA 2024.2.1.

You can update to this version from inside the IDE, via the Toolbox App, or by using snaps for Ubuntu. You can also download it from our website.

This release brings support for a variety of Java 23 language features, including module import declarations, basic Markdown comments, and primitive types in patterns, instanceof, and switch, as well as other minor JEPs.

We’ve also fixed a number of bugs. Here are some of the most notable updates:

• The IDE no longer crashes on macOS when the terminal is open. [IJPL-157074]
• The IDE no longer fails to start when non-ASCII characters are present in the installation path. [IJPL-156417, IJPL-35364]
• The IDE now correctly recognizes java-test-fixtures as generated test sources. [IDEA-353172]
• The IDE now saves projects more quickly upon closing, resolving the issue of occasional delays. [IJPL-148614]
• Inspection once again works as expected for MVC path variables for @ModelAttribute in Spring projects. [IDEA-347097]
• With the GitLab plugin enabled, you can once again open a new merge request after merging a previous one from the same branch. [IJPL-81309]
• Actions in the JPA Buddy’s toolbar are working once again. [IDEA-356485]
• Numeric and alphabetic dynamic variables now work as intended in the HTTP Client. [IDEA-357259]
