I would really like to see javadoc editing support in IDEA. Not just you
simple pop-up window text screen but actually with formatting tools...
since javadocs are made to be extracted to html and IDEA does such a
good job of generating javadocs, they should be written with browser
reading in mind I think.
Here an other crazy idea that goes against all you wizard nay-sayers...
When a new method is started and you press TAB after the first '{' to
auto-complete the method syntax I would like the option of having a very
quick and simple wizard that 'forces' me to write javadoc for entering
descriptions of method, params, return, etc. Then you are brought back
to the code... and type away.
I think this would help in ensuring that javadoc is written as soon as
possible and it wouldn't really break the rhythm I think.

I would love this kind of feature.
+1
How about being able to convert a "else if" into a "select/case"

Subject: [Eap-features] New feature idea: inverse boolean values
Hello,
I sometimes (even now) would find it really cool to have the ability to
inverse a boolean value.
1) If/else statements
=====================
I needed to transform following code
if (!isSomething()) {
return someOther;
}
return someOther2;
into
if (!isSomething()) {
return someOther;
}
else {
return someOther2;
}
Since this looks odd, it would be cool, if IDEA could switch it around:
if (isSomething()) {
return someOther2;
}
else {
return someOther;
}
2) Return values
================
A method isFalse() returned an value that was used on some other parts
of
our project.
Now I wanted to reverse it's result (and rename it to isTrue()).
IDEA should be able to toggle the used results around. Example: Anywhere
following lines existed:
if (isFalse()) {
doThis();
}
No it should look like this:
if (!isTrue()) {
doThis();
}
3) Simplify some boolean expressions
====================================
On really bad code I found following:
if (!(a == b)) {
}
This should be simplified (or made better readable) to:
if (a != b) {
}
Or less readable:
if (!(a == b || c == d)) {
}
could be better transformed to:
if (a != b && c != d) {
}
Best regards
Thomas Singer
