WildFly 11 - Update classes and resources doesn't work

Answered

Hi,

my company is currently evaluating IntelliJ and we encountered a show stopper (for us at least):

When I change i.e. the source code of a service class and press CTRL+F9, it seems that the class get compiled but after some seconds the little green tooltip states "Loaded classes are up to date. Nothing to reload". When I look at the time stamp of the .class file, I still see the time of the last successful compilation and not the current time.

This happens most of the time. Sometimes it is recompiling and the class is reloaded, but I haven't figured out how I can convice IntelliJ to do this always.

We're using WildFly 11, JDK 8 on Windows 10 with the latest version of IntelliJ.

Any help is much appreciated

Update to my own post: when I press Ctrl+Shift+F9 the class gets reloaded.This is for the time being a workaround, but it's not very useful if you have modifications in multiple files.

Hello Andreas,

Is it possible  to provide idea.log ("Help | Show Log in...") after restarting IDE and reproducing the issue? Do you face the same problem with all projects?

Hi Yaroslav,

this is in the log file when I press Ctrl+F9 after changing a file:

It seems to me, that IntelliJ is not detecting the modified .java file. If I explicitly compile the changed file via Ctrl+Shift+F9, it works.

In the build.log file I can see this when I press Ctrl+F9 after a change:

2018-06-12 08:19:06,651 [  68676]   INFO - rains.jps.cmdline.BuildSession - No changes found since last build. Exiting.

Andreas,

Could you please attach full idea.log after restarting IDE? You could use any online sharing service or our FTP:  ftp://ftp.intellij.net/.uploads/

Do you use any build system (Maven, Gradle) or any external tools that might compile changed sources?

Hi Yaroslav,

thanks for your reply. Meanwhile we figured out why the Ctrl+F9 didn't work: our sources were located in a subfolder of a ".git" folder. We moved our project to a folder that doesn't start with a dot.

My best guess is, that IntelliJ is not scanning .git folders for source code file changes.

 

Is it possible with IntelliJ to start a build (and hot redeploy to an application server) after a file has been changed? My colleagues were using Eclipse beforhand and they love this feature.

Andreas,

You are right - ".git" folder is excluded by default.

It's possible to update changed files: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/updating-applications-on-application-servers.html

Really a showstopper. Yes, CTRL + SHIFT +F9 Works and after me spending few hours restarting, Server, IDE, machine. This post helped, but eclipse pick up right way
