source code for the java language available?

Hello picnic,

I'd like to make another try to write a IDEA plugin. In order to do
that I'd like to get a basic understanding how the original java
plugin works and than make some minor modifications.
I've downloaded the dev-kit from
http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/index.html#kit. In the "plugin"
directory, there is a huge selection of plugins, but I don't see a
"Java" plugin. Is there none or do I look at the wrong place?

Java support is not a plugin, and the source code for it is not, and will
not be available. You can look at the JavaScript plugin as an example of
a language plugin implementation.

hi dimitry

thanks for your fast reply.

the JS plugin you are speaking of. Does that also include the ActionScript/Flex support?

There is a "flex" folder under the directory:
/plugins/JavaScriptLanguage/src/src_JavaScriptLanguage/com/intellij/lang/javascript/

but it only contains a few files:
FlexFaceEditor.form FlexFacetConfiguration.java
FlexFacet.java FlexFacetType.java

I don't think that these are implementing the ActionScript language that has some huge differences to javascript (OO, packages,..)

Yes, partially.

There is a "flex" folder under the directory:
/plugins/JavaScriptLanguage/src/src_JavaScriptLanguage/com/intellij/la
ng/javascript/

but it only contains a few files:
FlexFaceEditor.form FlexFacetConfiguration.java
FlexFacet.java FlexFacetType.java

ActionScript is implemented by the same classes as JavaScript (com.intellij.lang.javascript.psi,
for example). The differences aren't that huge.
