Does IDEA provide any way to reformat build errors?
Answered
When I attempt to start my java project from a build configuration in IDEA, in the console there appears a very very long build error message:
ERROR 75333 ---[main] - o.s.b.w.e.tomcat.TomcatStarter - Error starting Tomcat context. Exception: org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException. Message: Error creating bean with name ........
Is there a way to have this formatted and viewable in IDEA without having to copy and paste this into some online reformatter somewhere? (which I havent yet found a suitable online formatter for this anyway!)

You can try using Analyze external stack traces feature https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/analyzing-external-stacktraces.html . The clipboard content is automatically pasted in the window.
You can also enable Soft-Wraps to make the output more readable:
Enabling soft wraps helps (I didn't know about that) but I can't get the stack trace analyzer to intelligently split the lines on the original breakpoints that were somehow filtered out in the display. I clicked normalize and checked "unscramble stack trace" to no avail. Any tips?
Could you provide a complete stacktrace example? Thank you!
