Code folding - This is my #1 feature from the list. I use this mainly to
analyze debug logs. I am an ex-Kawa user who still goes back to that IDE for
this feature(Kawa calls it selective text display). I believe Kawa got the
functionality from the CodeWrite editor. I am able to enter a regular
expression that matches my debug output, and condense a very large log into
the few items that I am interested in. I can't wait to see it in Ariadna!
One instance is of our use of this feature is:
We log the thread with each log entry, by using the thread as the regular
expression (e.g. "Thread1.") I condense the log to display only those
entries which that thread contributed, yet I am able to open and close the
nodes to see what occurred around it.
The original log:
[Thread 1] message1
[Thread 1] message2
[Thread 2] message3
[Thread 3] message4
[Thread 1] message5
with filter applied looks like:
[Thread 1] message1
+[Thread 1] message2
[Thread 1] message5
selecting the "+" looks like:
[Thread 1] message1
-[Thread 1] message2
[Thread 2] message3
[Thread 3] message4
[Thread 1] message5
I hope this is the way that intellij intends this feature to work.

Wow, great set of features, but one that I'll question:
Editor
- Code folding
Does anyone actually use this? I mean with I've had at least one other IDE
that I used extensively that had this "feature". I couldn't stand it, so I
turned it off. I mean, you already have a "Structure" panel for a quick,
pickable list of the methods and fields, and the ability to jump between
methods using Alt+Up/Down. So why would anyone want to hide the code so that
you have to "expand" it to actually do any work?
If anyone can explain it to me I'd be much obliged.
Of course, as long as I can turn it off and not see any sluggishness or
whatever because of it, I'm fine. I'm just trying to save you guys work.
;-)
