> Implementation looks sane. Two thoughts: > > 1. (Out of scope for this changeset): Maven hints are missing "Show as warning on current line". With more hints the noise goes up and the hepfulness goes down. This is a candiate for to much noise. @work this would flag nearly all dependencies and thus I would deactivate it. yeah would be nice to have feature parity with the java hints where it makes sense. There is also currently no way to run maven hints as inspections although this is probably only rarely needed. Projects can define project specific hints but this is also only possible for java hints I believe (I don't see anything else in the combo box). > > 2. Would it make sense to provide an update to latest and "latest in same major version"? I associate bumping major version with incompatible change or at least "no stability guarentee". Done. I added it as option in the hint settings. I actually thought about adding this too but dismissed it since I initially wanted to keep this really simple (since there are maven plugins for this). But I believe a simple "don't suggest major version upgrades" probably covers 95% of all typical cases, so why not. The initial motivation for this was because many project pom templates are outdated, this gives the user a quick upgrade path even on first use once the IDE downloaded the maven index. The release version hint (and other IDE features too) require certain compiler plugin versions. This hint can basically unlock other hints by bumping this version. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
