IntelliJ does not index Java files

Answered

Hi,

I am trying to use IntelliJ on a newly created clone of a GitHub project (Apache Cassandra). I used "File -> Open ..." menu and selected the root directory of the cloned Git project.  IntelliJ happily opens it and indexing seems to run for a few seconds. But then all actual Java files are not indexed for some reason. 

The Java files are under relative path of `src/java/org/apache/cassandra/` . My question is: shouldn't IntelliJ automatically scan ALL Java files (i.e. `.java` files) under the project root directory?  If not,  what should I do to let IntelliJ to scan all Java files?

Thanks.

Just wanted to clarify, IntelliJ IDEA did index the Java source files, but did not index its Class or any other symbols as regular Java files. As a result, searching by Class name does not work.  Other symbol based navigations also not working. The attached screen shot shows a Java file was not be detected as a Java class. Any ideas?
