I want to keep manual indentation in some chained method calls using IntelliJ IDEA, so that the given, when, then are all not indented, but the formatter keeps shifting it back.
I type:
given
.spec(withAcceptsGzipHeader)
.authenticatedAsStandardUser()
.when
.get(resourceUnderTestPath)
.Then()
.statusCode(OK)
.header(HttpHeaders.CONTENT_ENCODING, "gzip")
.body("", hasKey(LICENCE_ID_OPTION))
and the formatter changes it to:
given
.spec(withAcceptsGzipHeader)
.authenticatedAsStandardUser()
.when
.get(resourceUnderTestPath)
.Then()
.statusCode(OK)
.header(HttpHeaders.CONTENT_ENCODING, "gzip")
.body("", hasKey(LICENCE_ID_OPTION))
I have Wrapping and Braces -> Chained method calls -> Align when muiltiline unchecked.
I know about #formatter:off/on but that's not quite a proper solution.
This post seems to ask for what I need. Surprised this hasn't been solved yet!

I've noticed the following error popping up in the console when running my app on iOS 9 when using a storyboard. I'm using xCode7. Is this something I need to be concerned about?
-[UIApplication _handleNonLaunchSpecificActions:forScene:withTransitionContext:completion:] ** unhandled action -> <FBSSceneSnapshotAction: 0x176bfb20> {
handler = remote;
info = <BSSettings: 0x176a5d90> {
(1) = 5;
};
}
There is nothing wrong with your code. This is a logging message internal to Apple, and you should file a radar about it.
There are two hints that show that this is probably Apple's code:
The underscore leading the method name _handleNonLaunchSpecificActions:forScene:withTransitionContext:completion is a convention indicating that the method is private/internal to the class that it's declared in. (See this comment.)
It's reasonable to guess that the two letter prefix in FBSSceneSnapshotAction is shorthand for FrontBoard, which according to Rene Ritchie in "iOS 9 wish-list: Guest Mode" is part of the whole family of software related to launching apps:
With iOS 8, Apple refactored its system manager, SpringBoard, into several smaller, more focused components. In addition to BackBoard, which was already spun off to handle background tasks, they added Frontboard for foreground tasks. They also added PreBoard to handle the Lock screen under secure, encrypted conditions. [...]
I have no idea what the BS prefix in BSSettings is for, but
BS is shorthand for BackBoard Settings, and an analysis of this log message would indicate that it's not anything you did, and you should file a radar with steps to reproduce the logging message.
If you want to try and grab a stack trace, you can implement the category linked to here. Some would argue that overriding private API is a bad idea, but in this case a temporary injection to grab a stack trace can't be too harmful.
EDIT:
But, we still want to know what this action is. So I put a breakpoint on -[UIApplication _handleNonLaunchSpecificActions:forScene:withTransitionContext:completion] and started printing out register values and found a class called FBSceneImpl which had a whole bunch of information about my application:
We are able to find out which private method is called next (stored in the program counter, instruction pointer, register 15.)
I tried finding the un-handled FBSceneSnapshotAction referenced in the log, but no dice. Then, I subclassed UIApplication, and overrode _handleNonLaunchSpecificActions:forScene:withTransitionContext:completion. Now I was able to get at the action directly, but still, we don't know what it is.
Then, I looked at the FBSceneSnapshotAction again. Turns out it has a superclass called BSAction.
Then I wrote a tool similar to RuntimeBrowser and looked up all of the subclasses of BSAction. It turns out that there's quite a list of them:
The two method names we have (one from the log and one from the program counter on the devices) indicate that these actions are used under the hood for passing actions around the system.
Some actions are probably sent up to the app delegate's callbacks, while others are handled internally.
What's happening here is that there is an action that wasn't handled correctly and the system is noting it. We weren't supposed to see it, apparently.
AFAIK, the info above is related to iOS during snapshot the screen (i suppose for double click home multitask related behaviour).I deeply investigated my application and seems that it does not get any side behaviours. You can safely ignore it, for now.
You can use the following gist simple category to test yourself against the calls to the above function:
I have figured it out, it will happen when you have IBAction method declared in .h or .m file but you have not bind it to any control.
.m example:
- (IBAction)click:(id)sender{
}
but not assigned this method to any control in storyboard.
haven't find out why it happens in my app, but at least you can catch the exception, if you want to keep this from popping up in your log pane. It's not a solution, but it might give you more insight why it is happing by inspecting any of the arguments that are passed in the catch.
swift 2 version:
import UIKit
extension UIApplication {
func _handleNonLaunchSpecificActions(arg1: AnyObject, forScene arg2: AnyObject, withTransitionContext arg3: AnyObject, completion completionHandler: () -> Void) {
//whatever you want to do in this catch
print("handleNonLaunchSpecificActions catched")
}
}
I only rarely use #synchronized, but as far as I can remember (meaning around Xcode 3.2 or something), it never suggested #synchronized when using the auto-completion, and still never does.
I do get suggestions when typing '#', like #autorelease, #encode, #selector and so forth.
Is there any known reason for this ? I wasn't able to find any related topic. It's been bugging me, because it gives me the feeling that this is not a valid method to handle concurrency in iOS.
#synchronized does not appear when using auto-completion because Apple has not mapped that keyword to any code sense implementation.
Per Apple's suggestion, I have filed a bug report.
However, I can offer an auto-complete solution.
You may create an #synchronized snippet that can be auto-completed or drag and dropped into your code.
Copy/paste the code below into one of your Xcode documents.
Select the new code and drag it to your snippets library.
Double-click the new snippet and click edit.
Enter #synchronized for the completion shortcut.
For more info: http://nshipster.com/xcode-snippets/
#synchronized(anObj) {
// Everything between the braces is protected by the #synchronized directive.
}
I've never figured out how to make Intellij handle continuation indent for chained methods properly, and apparently today is the day it's annoyed me enough to consult you lovely people.
What I want is this:
makeAThing(
"with",
"params"
)
.setProperty("with some more params")
.start();
What I get is this:
makeAThing(
"with",
"params"
)
.setProperty("with some more params")
.start();
I get this in Java, Groovy, JavaScript and a bunch of other places. How can I persuade Intellij not to add continuation indent after a chained method call?
I just switched to intellij and also have found this rather annoying.
Only found two solutions:
forcing the coding style to have 0 for "continuation indent" which I'm starting to like anyway albeit not very canonical Java.
Turing off the formatter for blocks of code and press shift tab
Works for Java not sure for JS:
// #formatter:off
...
// #formatter:on
Is there any sort of flag or way to call a method without triggering any event handlers?
FOR EXAMPLE
I'm handling a controlTextDidChange method and checking to see if the character returned by a keystroke is valid. If it's not, I remove it; if it is, I append a word. The problem is that when I change the text while in controlTextDidChange, controlTextDidChange is called again and the program will loop indefinitely. I know I can use an instance variable to get around this, but is there any sort of flag or way to call a method without triggering any event handlers?
To expand the comment into a quick answer.
You have a method that issues a notification by design. You want it to not issue that notification. You don't have an alternative available that does the same thing w/o the notification. If you want it to never issue that notification, and you have access to the code for the method, you could swizzle the method to a version where you've just commented out the notification. Of course, if you had the code, you could just add another method, and call that one. So you don't have the code, and all that's moot.
Can't you just bracket that invocation in code that removes the listener and then restores the listener? In other words, psuedocode like this:
[self.controlThingy removeObserver:self]
[self.controlThingy myMethod]
[self.controlThingy addObserver:self]
You've then made self deaf to notifications for that one invocation of myMethod. I've done similar things with bindings and KVO.
I recently attended a user group meeting where the IntelliJ representative was demonstrating version 13.
He demonstrated how to switch the code completion view of a file. I do not exactly remember what the file extension of this particular file was, probably java.
The concept was that if the file is html with embedded javascript he could then switch the code completion between html and javascript with a shortcut. If he says treat the file as html then all code in file was treated for code completion purposes as html, and vice versa for javascript.
Does anybody know what shortcut he might have been using to enable the language switch?
Sounds like you may be referring to the IntelliLang feature. IntelliJ IDEA can be aware of other languages embedded within a file.
A simple example is in an HTML file that has CSS and JavaScript.
Notice when I am inside the HTML markup:
or inside an HTML element:
The code complete shows HTML completion options. However, when I am inside the style attribute, I get CSS code completion:
I also get CSS code completion if I am inside a <style> element. So even though I am in an HTML file, I see CSS code completion because of my location.
Same case with JavaScript. When I invoke code completion inside a <script> element, I get JavaScript completion, even though I am in an HTML file.
Anytime IntelliJ IDEA can determine that another embedded language is present, it provides, via IntelliLang, the appropriate syntax highlighting, error highlighting, and code completion. The same holds true for Java. Notice here that IDEA knows the method I am competing takes an SQL statement and therefore highlights the String value using SQL highlighting, and provides SQL code completion:
So even though I am in a .java file, I get SQL code completion. The reason is that IntelliLang comes pre-configured knowing the embedded language of some methods. You modify them, or add more, in File > Settings > [Project Settings] > Language Injections.
In addition, you can use an annotation to tell IntelliJ IDEA (as well as developers looking at the code) that a String must be valid in a particular language. For example, I can annotate a String field, variable, or parameter, to indicate it must be valid HTML:
Notice I get HTML syntax highlighting, HTML code completions, and the CSS color shows in the left gutter. If I annotate a method parameter, then any time I call the method, I get the appropriate syntax highlighting, code completion, and error/warning highlighting:
The #Language annotation is inside the annotations.jar that is contained in the redist directory inside the IntelliJ IDEA installation directory. It is also available in maven central, or IDEA will offer to attach it as a Library if you use the annotation without it being attached.
IntelliLang and the #Language annotation supports a large number of languages. Just use code Completion inside the quotes after typing #Language("") to see a list. (Inline search works in the list as well.) One of the most useful is Regexp. For example, if you have a method that expects the string passed in to be a valid Regular Expression, annotating it as such will give anyone that calls it Regex code completion and error highlighting if they are passing in an invalid Regex pattern. Even for developers using other IDEs it is useful as a form of documentation.
As for a shortcut to change the the language on the fly for code completion, the only thing I can think that you might be referring to is the "Inject Language" intention. If I am entering a String value, and I bring up the quick-fix/intention menu via Alt+Enter, I am given an option to inject a language:
If I select that, IntelliJ IDEA will ask me what language I want to use:
After making my selection, IntelliJ IDEA will give me temporary language injection (including code completion) for the selected language.
It also gives me an option to add the #Language annotation for permanent injection.
To the best of my knowledge (as a 10 year IntelliJ IDEA user) that is the only way to switch code completion language types. So hopefully that is what you are looking for. To me, IntelliLang is one of the coolest features in IntelliJ. (It actually started as a third party plug-in and JetBrains then absorbed it into the product.)
