I'd like to be able to pass some command line arguments to my command line tool program in Xcode. Where do I add these? I'd like to do it in the IDE rather than simply do it manually from the command line.
I've found this in the help file:
Running Your Application with Arguments
Configure a scheme with runtime arguments for your application when
you run it in Xcode. The Run action in the scheme editing dialog
determines what happens when you choose Product > Run.
From the Scheme toolbar menu, choose a scheme.
From the same menu, choose Edit Scheme to display the scheme dialog.
In the left column, select Run.
To specify runtime arguments, click Arguments and then click the Add
button.
Click OK.
Click the Run button or choose Product > Run.
Solved my problem :-)

I have some handy mappings set up in my ~/.ideavimrc some of which result in IntelliJ opening a new window/dialog box. For example the following line lets me type \t and it'll open IntelliJ's "jump to test" dialog box which lets me jump to an existing test or create a new test file:
:map \t :action GotoTest<CR>
This almost works great. The only issue is that when the dialog box pops up the focus is still on the editor window, not the dialog box. As a result I can't simply use the arrow keys to select my option and hit enter. Instead, I have to use the mouse. As a good code nerd, I abhor the mouse. So, how do I get the keyboard focus to change? Is this possible?
It's fixed in the master branch https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/VIM-796, but the fix hasn't been released yet. You can download a CI build and help testing IdeaVim. See https://github.com/JetBrains/ideavim for more details.
I created some batch work and integrated it as ExternalTool to the IntelliJ IDEA. as described here: Configure Intellij IDEA to run batch file
But how can I add buttons to my toolbar that will activate the batch that defined as external tool?
It is quite easy.
Assuming that you already have an External Tool configured just right click on the menu bar and choose Customize Menus and Toolbars...:
Next step is to mark the last item (whatever that is in your setup) in Main Toolbar and select Add After...:
Now you can select your external tool from the Choose Actions To Add window (here you can also select an icon to use):
Action has been added:
And your button has been added to the toolbar:
I am trying to set breakpoints, nothing happens for couple of classes that I compiled recently with "mvn install". I am able to set breakpoints to classes which were already built by someone else.
Please let me know if anyone knows how to solve it.
Had the same issue while using IDEA CE 15:
Removing the Python CE plugin 5.0.143.103 fixed the issue... but no Python parsing! :(
File -> Invalidate Caches and Restart helped solve the problem. Thanks Tomasz Nurkiewicz for the directions
In my case, the issue was caused by PHP Plugin (https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/?id=6610). Even after "Invalidate Caches and Restart", the issue persisted.
Uninstalling that PHP plugin, solved my problem.
By nothing happens do you mean that breakpoint isn't hit? Take a closer look at breakpoint icon. Especially see the difference between
and
icons. The latter indicates the code you run while debugging doesn't have any meaningful instruction on that line.
One of the reasons for such behaviour is when code you run is not the code you see. It can happen when application server can is still running old JAR or something similar. This seems to be the case since you say that breakpoints work in older code.
The solution to fixing breakpoints was adding the wildcard file extension "*.py" to the Python File Types in Python (it must have the wildcard symbol prefix, not just ".py") through taking these steps:
Go to:
IntelliJ IDE > Preferences (CMD+,) > Editor > File Types > Recognized
File Types
Under "Recognized File Types" heading:
Scroll down; Select "Python"
(associated Registered Patterns will be shown below)
Under "Registered Patterns" heading:
Click "+" icon; Enter "*.py", Click OK
(do whatever is necessary to achieve this, including removing/renaming others without the wildcard if necessary)
Add breakpoints by:
Select line(s) of code (not an empty line or comment); Going to: Run >
Toggle Line Breakpoint (CMD+F8)
Configure debugging with breakpoints by going to:
Run > Edit Configurations...; Click "+"; Select "Python"; Add a value
for the "Name" property; Select location of the ".py" file to debug
(in the "Script" property); Click OK
Debug using the breakpoints by going to:
Run > Debug... (Fn+CMD+F9); Wait until it stops at a breakpoint;
Inspect variable values shown in the file itself by hovering over
variable; Click variables and view the Frame and Variable details in
the Debug window by going to: View > Tool Windows > Debug (CMD+5)
Important Note: Initially I tried doing the following but after each one I was still unable to use breakpoints afterward:
Removing and reinstalling the Python plugin:
Entering CMD+,; In the dialog window going to Plugins > Install
Jetbrains Plugin.. > "Python" > Install
Updating IntelliJ Ultimate edition to the latest version v2016.3.4
Going to:
File > Invalidate Caches and Restart
Right click on the gutter (where you normally click to set breakpoint)
select "Configure Gutter Icons..." then enable the checkbox at the top that says
"Show gutter icons"
That fixed it for me
Simply closing and reopening file worked in setting gutter breakpoints
This is embarrassing but posting here in case this solution will help somebody else: A breakpoint will not show up if you attempt to place it between executable lines of code. The breakpoint must be located on an executable line of code to work. Make sure you click on the gutter next to an executable line or place your cursor on an executable line when you use the shortcut. Once I did this, the breakpoints worked.

In GNAT Programming Studio, how do you run the program? I see it compiled successfully, but I do not see where my program has started running. I would like to test it.
First, you have to select your Main procedure in the project properties (see the "main files" tab). You can actually choose multiple files for multiple executables.
Next, you have to build it - either by pressing F4 for the first Main File in the list, or by choosing it in the Build->Project submenu, or by choosing "build all" in the Build->Project submenu (or use the toolbar for the menu entries).
Last, you can choose, which of your Main Files to run by choosing it in the Build->Run menu, or by pressing shift+F2 for the first file in the list. Enter the parameters in the dialog and press OK.
There should be a new Tab next to the Messages panel, where all output is placed, and you can use it for input, too. You could choose to use an external terminal in the run dialog.
If you want to debug it, have a look at the Debug menu. Read the documentation for more information.
Last, you can choose, which of your Main Files to run by choosing it in the Build->Run menu, or by pressing shift+F2 for the first file in the list. Enter the parameters in the dialog and press OK.
Whatever I enter here, e.g. either the name of the project, Primes_Count or the name of what I see to be the 'executable', Primes_Count.o, it just does not run.
And I get this message output on the Messages window :
Could not locate executable on path: Primes_Count.o
I don't see why Ada is making such a big deal out of the Run step.
If there is another stage between making the .o file and a finished Ada executable, then surely it is something that the GPS system can take care of itself . . .
December.
OK now, sorted. The GPS panel governing this [ Project menu > Edit Proj Props > Main Files tab ] setting was blacked out until clicked.
Running available now and working well.
it is Project->Properties-> Main Files add your file to run. This will sort out the issue.
I have a desktop application which reads files from a specified folder, then deposits the files to a folder in a third party document management system based on criteria that the user provides.
My question is:
is it possible to somehow provide different parameters to the code, depending on which shortcut of the application the user clicked on to start it up?
You can add command line parameters to a shortcut icon. Here's how you can do it in Windows:
On the Start Menu, navigate to Notepad.
Right click on Notepad and choose Send To > Desktop (Create Shortcut)
Right click on the newly-created desktop icon and choose Properties
Add your command line parameters to the Target text box.
For example, if you want notepad to open up the hosts file, this would be the content of Target property:
%SystemRoot%\system32\notepad.exe "C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts"
You can put pretty much anything into the Target property of a shortcut that you would put into a command line.
Yes.
The easiest way would be to have the shortcut pass those parameters in via the command line.
You could also use conditional compilation variables, and have 2 different .exes. You should be able to find samples of both approaches (command line and conditional compilation variable) in help.
