I've never used IntelliJ - I use Eclipse, instead - so I can't give you any direct experience or advice on it. However, Guacamole Client uses Maven as its build system, so if IntelliJ has the capability to import or open a Maven project, this would be the way to go. Eclipse is able to basically use the Maven (pom.xml) build system as the project and can just "open" Maven-based projects. Guacamole Server (guacd) is C-based, and uses Makefile. I'm not sure if IntelliJ is designed to deal with anything other than Java at all, but if it can import or be configured to use standard GNU Makefile for build, then that would be the way to go. -Nick
