Using Maven with IntelliJ IDEA 7.0
The next level of integration
IntelliJ IDEA 7.0 (Selena) which is currently available as part of Jetbrain's Early Access Program now supports Maven out of the box.
The efforts of various previous third party plugins have been joined into a first class feature with support for
- running Maven goals directly from the IDE similar to the ant integration
- synchronizing pom and IDEA project files (updating depedencies, etc.)
- a default project layout conforming to Maven standards in the project wizard.
Given the fact that Eclipse is still unable to ship out of the box support for Subversion - not to talk about Maven - this makes choosing the right IDE quite easy.
Re: Using Maven with IntelliJ IDEA 7.0
Good Day,
I am evaluating 7.0 M2 and was wondering if you know how to update the libraries that a project is linked to after the project is imported. For example if I am using common-io 1.0 in the pom.xml when the project is imported but then want to change to 1.1 of that library. I have tried changing the POM and re-compiling using the Maven built-in plug-in but I cannot seem to be able to get it to show the new library reference.
Thanks in advance.
