Coherence IntelliJ Plugin

This plugin adds features to IntelliJ to assist in development of applications using Oracle Coherence.

Features:

POF code generation for suitably annotated classes.

Installation

Using IDE built-in plugin system:

Preferences > Plugins > Marketplace > Search for "coherence-idea" > Install Plugin
Manually:

Download the latest release and install it manually using Preferences > Plugins > ⚙️ > Install plugin from disk...

Usage

For full documentation on the Coherence POF code generator and using PortableType annotations see the official Portable Types documentation

The POF code generator plugin uses the Coherence POF code generator to instrument classes tha have been annotated with the corresponding POF annotations. The plugin is a build service plugin that will instrument classes as part of the IntelliJ build process.

The plugin itself does not contain a coherence.jar or the POF code generator, it will use the code generator built into the version of Coherence that the current project depends on. This means that there is no need to upgrade the IntelliJ plugin for different versions of Coherence.

The POF plugin is disabled by default and must be enabled for each IntelliJ project. Once enabled, evolvable PortableType code will be generated for suitably annotated classes as part of the IntelliJ build process.

Open the IntelliJ preference pane and go to the Oracle Coherence panel under Languages & Frameworks,

Preferences > Languages & Frameworks > Oracle Coherence
Check the Enable POF code generation check box.

This plugin has been created using the IntelliJ Platform Plugin Template
