Steven Rowe commented on LUCENE-2611: ------------------------------------- {quote} The input .iml file that comes from the patch has a path like so for the benchmark contrib module (as an example): <output url="file://$MODULE_DIR$/../../build/contrib/benchmark/classes/java" /> And after IntelliJ reads this project and saves its files, this is re-written to: <output url="file://$SmileyDev$/Projects/Projects-External/lucene-solr_trunk/lucene/build/contrib/benchmark/classes/java" /> Obviously the path as given in the patch could be simplified to not needlessly use "../" and I'm pretty sure then that IntelliJ will not rewrite it. {quote} Not sure why we see different behavior, but on my systems (Windows 7 and Vista), IntelliJ does *not* rewrite to absolute paths. In fact, IntelliJ will generate the {{$MODULE_DIR$/../}} style output paths when you create new modules that output to non-descendant directories. bq. I wonder if several .iml files can be in the same directory but their so-called "content-roots" would be set to where they are now? I'm pretty sure IntelliJ allows only one .iml per directory. bq. Or, do away with module-specific build output directories and have them inherit the project level. Yes, this means the output directory is then inconsistent with ant. That matters little to me, but I can understand others having a difference of opinion.. I want to keep the output directories the same - I often switch between IntelliJ (for quick turnaround dev/testing) and Ant (pre-JIRA-patch testing). > IntelliJ IDEA setup > ------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2611 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2611 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Build > Affects Versions: 3.1, 4.0 > Reporter: Steven Rowe > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.1, 4.0 > > Attachments: LUCENE-2611-branch-3x.patch, > LUCENE-2611-branch-3x.patch, LUCENE-2611-branch-3x.patch, > LUCENE-2611-branch-3x.patch, LUCENE-2611.patch, LUCENE-2611.patch, > LUCENE-2611.patch, LUCENE-2611.patch, LUCENE-2611.patch, LUCENE-2611.patch, > LUCENE-2611.patch, LUCENE-2611_mkdir.patch, LUCENE-2611_test.patch, > LUCENE-2611_test.patch, LUCENE-2611_test.patch, LUCENE-2611_test.patch, > LUCENE-2611_test_2.patch > > > Setting up Lucene/Solr in IntelliJ IDEA can be time-consuming. > The attached patch adds a new top level directory {{dev-tools/}} with sub-dir > {{idea/}} containing basic setup files for trunk, as well as a top-level ant > target named "idea" that copies these files into the proper locations.
