Using integrated hg4idea plugin
Hi,
I'm new developing plugins for Intellij, also please be patient if I make some stupid questions or not understand some answers.
In the plugin I'm working I want to get the branch name of the active repository.
hg4idea is now integrated in Intellij, therefore it's in the IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition.
I started the plugin project as indicated in http://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/IDEADEV/Getting+Started+with+Plugin+Development#GettingStartedwithPluginDevelopment-anchor2
When I try to use the methods from hg4idea, they are not recognized.
I tried to export hg4idea as JAR-Lib.
In these case, it will be recognized, but then the project doesn't compile.
What I'm doing wrong? It's possible to use these methods? How?
Here my code:
public static String getCurrentBranch() {
DataContext dataContext = DataManager.getInstance().getDataContext();
Project project = DataKeys.PROJECT.getData(dataContext);
File rootFile = new File(project.getBasePath(), SOME_ROOT_FILE);
if (rootFile.isFile()) {
VirtualFile virtualFile = LocalFileSystem.getInstance().findFileByIoFile(rootFile);
if (virtualFile == null) {
virtualFile = LocalFileSystem.getInstance().refreshAndFindFileByIoFile(rootFile);
}
if (virtualFile != null) {
HgRepositoryManager repositoryManager = ServiceManager.getService(project, HgRepositoryManager.class);
HgRepository hgRepository = HgRepositoryImpl.getInstance(virtualFile, project, repositoryManager);
String branch = hgRepository.getCurrentBranch();
if (StringUtils.isNotBlank(branch)) {
return branch;
}
}
}
return StringUtils.EMPTY;
}
I send a screenshot from Intellij too.
Thank you very much for your help,
Pablo Rovi

You need to add the jar of the hg4idea plugin to the classpath of your IntelliJ IDEA SDK and to add a <depends>hg4idea</depends> tag to your plugin.xml.
It works, thank you very much!
