[generics] does Idea support static imports?

No, not yet. Probably not in Aurora...

e.g.

And the COS class looks like:

If I'm not mistaken, this is a Java Compiler change for JDK 1.5 which is not
out yet (not even a release candidate). It probably won't be supported until
that time.

I've downloaded adding_generics-2_2-ea.zip, set up Idea to use generic compiler and that code compiled succesfully in spite of the error syntax highlighting.
Am I missing somethig?

BTW, then JDK 1.5 released, will Aurora works with it correctly?
I mean that now IDEA use generics only from lib/generics folder, but for JDK
1.5 it not requires...
Is there any suggestions of this?
Thank you

Static imports are part of JSR014 2.2 EA release, but they are not (and not
likely to be) supported by Aurora.

As truly noted in the other message of this thread, 1.5 is not even in beta
yet. Obvious answer to your question is: IntelliJ IDEA is not going out of
this market any time soon, so we will keep up with all the latest Java
developements, including generics and static imports :)

For more specifics, wait until 1.5 is out - at least in beta. We cannot
guarantee that IDEA works with something that does not exist yet :)

Think about it... How can they develop support for something that doesn't
exist in any publically accessible form yet? You gotta wait until JDK 1.5
is available.

Ah ok - I've not actually looked at the generics compiler yet, I reset my
password on the java site but they never emailed me the password :( Grr.
And no amount of trying has solved that :(
