Todays bit of IntelliJ coolness

I just had a page hit the max size that WebSphere can handle.

I was preparing myself for pain in splitting the page into sections, carefully making sure that I matched tags… but to my happy surprise, but found that the job was almost too easy with IntelliJ.

I just went to the start tag, and IntelliJ marked for me the code that went to the end tag. A quick cut and paste, put in some includes, and wow, it all works.

And doing jsp editing isn’t even one of the great strengths of the IDE.

It sure does make development a pleasure ;) .

    It’s not Websphere – it’s java has limitation of number of lines per method (something nearly 64000 – but I may be mistaken) and jsp compiled into servlet with 1 method. It’s very possible that you reaching this limit – especially if you are using alot jsp tags.

    I’m using IDEA all the time – greatest tool!

    vladek, could you point me to any reference about the number of line limiation? I’m just curious…

    The reason that I point to WebSphere as being the culprit, is that I don’t get the same problem under Orion…. but hey Orion rocks.
