running IntelliJ idea from terminal prints everything has changed - intellij-idea

I use manjaro linux and run applications from the terminal. Recently when I type idea (running I assume idea.sh, as this is what the top of the terminal says), and try to minimize and expand the idea window the terminal prints "Everything has changed". Is this something I should care about or is it just some random text?
everything has changed

It's a bug in the bundled JDK, should be already fixed in a later version: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/JRE-854

What is the reason for intellij IDEA for not launching (Failed to load JVM DLL)?

On my computer (64 bit operating system, x64 based processor) I installed Amazon Correto JDK 11 (for 64 bit) and IntelliJ IDEA. it was working till today without any issues. But now I can not open my Intellij IDEA. In fact it is not even launching.
I checked the environment variables and path reference of Java. It is all set. But when I double click on Intellij IDEA it is showing loading sign for a moment but it is not launching. I tried to run the same by going to it's directory and by using cmd. But still it is not launching. When I try to open the 32-bit version I get an error, but I know it is obvious, because I am using a JDK version for 64 bit. I want to know why my Intellij IDEA is not launching. Even after downloading the appropriate Java version and setting up the path correctly. There were no issues till today. I tried reinstalling my Java and Intellij. Still the issue is there. If anyone can help, please let me know the reason.
You are trying to run 32-bit idea.exe while your default JDK points to 64-bit JDK, hence the problem. Please use idea64.exe instead that will run on the bundled JetBrains Runtime.
In case idea64.exe also fails, please run using idea.bat inside cmd.exe to see if there any errors logged in the console.
Perform the steps from this document if the issue is caused by some plug-in or corrupted options.

All ide from JetBrains launch extremely long on Arch Linux XFCE4

I have just installed fresh Arch Linux with XFCE4 and downloaded WebStorm. I did everything exactly as it is said in howto file (by executing .sh from bin folder). When i click on the WebStorm icon it looks like nothing is happening but suddenly after around 90s (and its min. value, i wonder how long it would be including project loading..) window pops up showing loading process.
I have pretty strong laptop with i7, 8gig of ram and SSD. There isn't any project loading also. It's fresh start. It used to work on Xubuntu, but it seems like i missed something during installation process or I dont know..
It's recommended to use OracleJDK not OpenJDK.
And try to trace what is happening while loading from terminal because if there is any error it will appear immediately.

Problems with Octave on Windows 8: crashes after any error

I have installed (and re-installed) Octave 3 times on Windows 8, and I still can't get it right. The first and most obvious problem is that the prompt is missing; the screen only shows the flashing underscore that follows the prompt. This is not a major problem since the system properly responds to commands.
The major problem is that Octave crashes whenever it encounters a syntax error, instead of politely giving a diagnostic. This makes for extremely tedious software development.
Is there a way around this problem, or do we just have to wait for one side or the other to come up with an accommodation?
I encountered the same problem. I solved it by this:
create a shortcut to octave.exe, then right click->property-> change the "target" to something like:
C:\Program Files\Octave\Octave3.6.*_gcc*.*.*\bin\octave.exe -i --line-editing
Then it won't exit if u have syntax errors.
I don't understand the meaning of the parameters yet.
reference:
http://exciton.eo.yzu.edu.tw/~lab/?p=1121
Type octave --help can check the meaning of parameters.
-i also --interactvie, to force Octave interactive behavior.
Maybe Octave run at non-interactive mode at default, that means prompt should not be shown and it should terminate immediately when encountered error when reading a file.
I don't know if this will solve your problem, or if this is too bloated of a solution for you, but I use Octave on Windows 7 through Cygwin without any problems.
If you can't get Octave to run on Windows 8, you may consider running Octave through Linux via computer virtualization technology (virtual computer). Two, off the top of my head that you could use are VirtualBox by Oracle or VMWare Player
Once you have it installed, you can go to any number of sites that have pre-built Linux images that you can download and then run inside of Windows 8.X. Do a Google search of for 'Virtualbox images' or as 'VMWare appliances'. You can then download and use that to run the lastest version of Octave. I hope that helps.
Cheers,

IntelliJ - Running Program as Sudo

Developing a program on OSX using Java and IntelliJ. Deals with network sockets and ICMP. Hence, the program needs to be run as root or sudo'd on OSX. Program runs fine from a terminal window outside IntelliJ under sudo. However, I would like to debug and run it from IntelliJ (V9). In IntelliJ it errors (I need root privs to enumerate network devices). I know how to pass program and VM parameters in IntelliJ but now how to hit Run and/Debug and have it run under sudo? What is needed is basically sudo java ...... MyProgram instead of java ..... MyProgram Any ideas or workarounds.
I came out with an answer and wanted to share it just in case anyone else runs into this. To solve the problem, I took my cue from what I do with QT & QT Creator when doing network programming.
On OSX, I opened up a terminal window and cd'd down to/Applications/IntelliJ IDEA 9.0.3.app/Contents/MacOS. There you will find a file called idea which launches the IDE. I ran that as sudo (sudo ./idea). That took care of permissions on anything Intellij launched and I could debug and step through my code as needed.
sudo /Applications/IntelliJ IDEA 9.0.3.app/Contents/MacOS/idea
Since this is a dev machine and I am in control of it security is not an issue in this case.
Hope it helps someone else out.
Inside a terminal:
sudo -s
give access to the root user.
from there you could run the Idea IDE using the script:
/Applications/IntelliJ\ IDEA*/bin/idea.sh
and in this way I'm able to work on network where permission errors where printed before.
Debugging of sudo programs is disallowed by the operating system unless the debugger is running as root, for security reasons.
So, even if you can figure out how to get IntelliJ to use sudo it won't do you any good.
I know this is not what OP directly asked -
In case someone needs to do this on Linux (Ubuntu), e.g. in order to update Idea, just run from command line:
sudo /usr/local/bin/idea
Only make sure once the Update and Restart is finished to actually close Idea and start it normally
I agree with #Darron, it is not recommended to execute IntelliJ with sudo.
You can execute with IntelliJ terminal instead.
I maintain my project in IntelliJ. When I need to execute a unit test that requires sudo access, I just open IntelliJ terminal and type:
sudo gradle test
Good luck!

MonoDevelop -- GTK Designer just shows a blank square?

I am having problems getting the GTK designer to work with MonoDevelop. I tried 2.4 on Arch Linux and it gave this problem. Then I tried 2.2 on OpenBSD and it gives the exact same problem. Both machines are 64bit.
Instead of having a window to drag things on I just have a blank square:
alt text http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/4766/monodevelop.png
The tutorials I've seen look similar to this though:
alt text http://monodevelop.com/#api/deki/files/142/=Stetic_Tutorial_06.jpg?size=bestfit&width=700&height=425
So what gives? With my blank square I can't drag anything onto it, not a VBox or other container even. It will not react to anything.
Am I missing some sort of GTK# configuration or what? I find it highly improbable that both OSs' packages I tried are broken. Also, I've attached a (huge) bounty to this because this is a pretty big issue for me.
The console output from the starting of Mono and including me trying to drag an element onto the gray box is here
Update
Ok, so I've finally gotten a bit closer to solving the mystery. I use Fluxbox as my window manager usually. Well I tried using both KDE and Gnome-Session and both of them cause MonoDevelop to work properly(though still missing the window border, you could at least drag components onto it). Now my question is what makes Fluxbox not work for it?
I have the same problem in openSUSE 11.3 x64 KDE using Mono JIT compiler version 2.6.7 (tarball Wed Jul 14 18:00:23 UTC 2010) downloaded from here
type -a monodevelop returns:
monodevelop is /usr/bin/monodevelop
monodevelop is /usr/bin/X11/monodevelop
Running monodevelop from terminal gives the following output

WARNING: Cannot find Mozilla directory

This can be solved by adding an environment variable in your .bashrc file from your home directory.
export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME='/path/to/libgtkembedmoz.so/directory/'
To find if that library exists on your systems use:
sudo find / -name libgtkembedmoz.so

(from this bug report this library is contain in the Mozilla's XUL Runner package, but in newer versions I don't know if it's still there, I had to use libgtkembedmoz.so provided by Slickedit which was installed in /opt/slickedit/bin/mozilla/)

I get the exact same error using Monodevelop 2.4, and I think this could be either from a broken GTK# installation or from a bug in Monodevelop,
Your result is the same as mine, see here. I suggest compiling MonoDevelop from Github and/or using a newer version of gtk-sharp/gdk-sharp
This part

If this does not resolve the problem submitting a bug report is the next option. Although this is somehow strange, since I managed to complete the same tutorial using Kubuntu 10.04 LTS 64 bit a few weeks ago.
Uh, that is the designer. If the toolbox didn't show up, go to View->Pads->Toolbox to bring it up.
Note that this Gtk, you can't just drop a button or textbox on the design surface. You have to drop a container control first, and then can place buttons and such inside the container.
set global gtk theme to default
check all bindings depends
try start monodevelop from console and post output on pastebin
"Now my question is what makes Fluxbox not work for it? " remember the GTK protect was made for GNOME project, all the libraries are made to work on that Desktop. so need to see all the dependencies to run it property
