Java code highlighting in AEM not working
I am working on a project in AEM (Adobe Experience Manager) - and I have tried both main plugins that exists for this, but whlie using any of them, sass and javascript gets the normal treatment - code highlighting and syntax checking, but the Java files is never recognized no matter how I try to mark directories as source. Can you give me any directions how to force a directory to be treated as java source no matter what plugins are active?

WebStorm provides no java support, and we have no plans to include it support in the product; there are no plugins for this language that can be installed in WebStorm. You can use Intellij IDEA Ultimate to employ all languages (Javascript, Java, PHP, CSS/SASS/LESS, etc.) support in a single environment. All you can do in Webstorm you can do equally well in IDEA, you won't lose any functionality.
If all you need is a basic syntax highlighting for Java, you can either try importing the corresponding textmate bundles (see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16451359/is-it-possible-to-get-ruby-syntax-highlighting-in-phpstorm/16451778#16451778) or register your own file type, defining a syntax highlighting rules for it (http://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/webhelp/new-file-type.html).
If none of these options look suitable for you, try developing your own language plugins - see http://www.jetbrains.org/intellij/sdk/docs/reference_guide/custom_language_support.html
Thanks, that helped. I just swapped over to my IDEA for future development, was not aware of this limitation in Webstorm.
