For Everyone on Java

• Faster Environment. New, background-enabled file indexing allows you to start using essential editing features almost immediately. All the advanced features become available in minutes.
• Global unused symbols highlighting. Shows dead code instantly, as you type.
• Easy class exclusion from completion & auto-import. Allows to get rid of unwanted java.awt.List et al.
• Built-in spell checker that verifies comments, literals and identifiers in your code.
• Make Java a concise language with auto folding: generic parameters, one method anonymous classes (aka poor man's closures), i18n-ized messages etc.
• See what particular index.html you're looking at with customizable colors for editor tabs.
• Enjoy Subversion 1.6 support.
• And more.

Java EE 6 Support

Though the specification itself is in late beta at the moment, IntelliJ IDEA 9M1 comes with initial support for this new standard of Java enterprise application development. The support includes error highlighting and usual editing aids for JPA 2.0, EJB 3.1, JSF 2.0, Servlet 3, Web Beans and Bean Validation, as well as support for GlassFish 3 Preview. We expect our Java EE 6 support to mature to the moment of IntelliJ IDEA 9 release as Java EE 6 / Glassfish going gold.

Also

• Tapestry Integration
• OSGi Application Development
• Android Development
• Google App Engine Integration
• New JavaScript Debugger. The JavaScript debugger is now implemented as a Firefox plugin, so you can debug applications running in your favorite browser, not only in that embedded in IntelliJ IDEA.
• PHP Support
• AIR support
• FlexUnit support
• Support for class, method and call hierarchy in ActionScript code
• GWT 1.6

Why in the world did we turn our sights to issue tracking? Based on our own corporate experience, a top-class issue tracker should be able to do the following:

• Make common actions, including issue search, issue editing and batch operations, faster and easier.
• Provide a lightweight UI that only shows as much detail as a developer wants.
• Support keyboard actions throughout the product.

Keeping these priorities in mind, we have designed a product that provides the following features:

• Compact search box for query-based issue search as an alternative to traditional issue filters. Human-readable queries (i.e., all critical unresolved issues for me) along with query completion in the search box make it easy to start using the search grammar right away. (demo)
• Inline issue editing, straight from within the list of search results — in addition to the more traditional dedicated-page editing. (demo)
• Batch commands that share syntax with search queries let you quickly select several issues and modify their attributes simultaneously. For example, once you've typed for me open fix for eap1 in the command window, all selected issues are assigned to you, their state changes to Open, and fix version changes to eap1. (demo)
• Tags — custom attributes assignable to any issue — and saved searches help users build their own paths for navigating between issues and quickly access most relevant issues. (demo)
• AJAX-based user interface provides multiple advantages, including the ability to quickly hide or expand details on demand.
• Extensive keyboard support helps create, edit, and navigate between issues using keyboard shortcuts. Mouse support is available as well, with filters, instant edit buttons, and menus representing common commands.

Intuitive search queries, inline editing, keyboard shortcuts, language-based commands that the user can apply to multiple issues — all this makes Charisma intuitive and easy to use without overloading the UI with too many controls.

Of course, we're gradually migrating our own products to Charisma. Currently, the users and developers of TeamCity, MPS, and dotTrace all work with the new issue tracker, providing valuable feedback.

You're welcome to download Charisma EAP builds and try them out on your own server (see installation instructions for details).

As there's still a long way to go towards beta, we encourage you to report any bugs that you may encounter, or make feature requests — you can do both here. You can also keep in touch with Charisma developers and learn what's going on using our new blog.

Whether or not you download Charisma right now, you can read useful tips and watch Charisma demos on its Welcome page.

Meta Programming System (MPS) is an environment for professional software developers to create new custom languages, extend existing languages, and use them to develop programs. MPS is also an instrument for creating Domain Specific Languages (DSLs). Domain experts who are not familiar with programming can easily use DSLs created with MPS.

MPS's main focus is to allow creating new languages and extending existing ones as easily as possible. Its advanced features enable defining language typesystems, constraints and specialized editors to produce new, powerful and easy-to-use languages. MPS uses a generative approach: languages are described on a higher level, and MPS generates compilable code in other languages, particularly in Java.

MPS will be free for all users and, moreover, a major part of its code is open-source (under Apache license).

To learn more about JetBrains MPS, download it and give it a try using the supplied Tutorial.

We are planning to have MPS 1.0 released early next year. But expect more announcements soon about new products that we've created using only MPS.

• Solution-wide analysis, a feature that looks for erroneous C# code in your whole solution on-the-fly, without compiling it first.
• .NET Framework classes annotated with custom attributes to make ReSharper analyze your code even better than before - for instance, to let it know where format strings should be passed or where null values can or can not be assigned.
• Code Cleanup - a powerful successor to Reformat Code. By simply running Code Cleanup, you can instantly apply a dozen of actions, including arranging 'this' qualifiers, removing code redundaicies, migrating to auto-properties, optimizing using directives, and many more.
• All ReSharper's refactorings now support C# 3.0. New members of the refactoring family are available, including a pack of C# 3.0-specific refactorings.
• Multiple new productivity features. This is to mention just a few:
  • Complete Statement. This is a new feature that inserts necessary syntax elements (braces, semicolons etc.) and gets you to the position to start the next statement.
  • CamelHumps in Code Completion. In ReSharper 4.0, all three completion features - Symbol Completion, Smart Completion, and Import Symbol Completion - let you complete any symbol by entering only its uppercase characters.
  • Live Templates Editor is a redesigned set of tools to view, manage, and edit ReSharper's three types of templates. From now on, you can manage and classify your templates in a special-purpose dialog box, and edit them right in a Visual Studio code pane.
  • Recent Edits - a drop-down list similar to existing Go To features that shows files and symbols that you recently modified.
• Smoother interaction with Visual Studio ecosystem. The quality of interaction with frameworks, add-ins, version control clients and other members of the Visual Studio ecosystem is brought to a new level. The list includes .NET Compact Framework, BizTalk, and Silverlight.
• ASP.NET Speedup. ReSharper 4.0 significantly speeds up analysis of ASP.NET pages, to enable more web developers benefit from the great toolset that ReSharper provides.

As before, ReSharper comes in three editions: Full, C# and VB.NET, which are called on to bring every customer precisely what they need - and enjoy the savings.

Download the beta version of ReSharper 4.0 to test the power of new capabilities and help us put the finishing touch on the product. Whatever edition you want, whatever version of Visual Studio you use, there's a single download file for all.

  Unique code analysis, available for C# code, is another major step forward for ReSharper. Now, in addition to detecting errors and warnings on the fly, ReSharper produces code suggestions - insights into your code that offer clever analysis and observations for various situations.

• XML and XAML Support

  ReSharper 3.0 brings much-awaited XML and XAML support. XML features include type completion, various navigation between tags, navigation to referenced types, basic code assistance, and live templates support.

The new version features several important new features in the Performance Profiling department, some very useful Memory Profiling enhancements, and other helpful improvements. Overall, developers' profiling options are expanded with regard to both the application profiling process and working with profiling results.

The first to be mentioned is a quadruple increase in the number of performance profiling tools available to dotTrace users. The new profiling modes introduced in dotTrace 3.0 include sampling profiling for fastest, minimum-overhead profiling (at the expense of accuracy), and routine thread profiling for unprecedented precision of measurement. This catapults the total number of profiling modes from one to four - a truly versatile set.

As far as memory profiling, more intricate memory leaks can now be spotted with the help of dotTrace's finalized objects. Developers can easily see objects that were finalized without being properly disposed of in their code. Navigating around the object graph has also got easier, thanks to the ability to merge strongly-connected objects.

Performance profiling enhancements in dotTrace 3.0 include:

• Measuring routine thread time, in addition to the existing wall time profiling mode.
• Super fast sampling profiling for getting the fastest picture of application's performance with the lowest possible overhead.
• Ability to save individual parts of snapshots (tab saving).
• Filtering and folding function call chains in Hot Spots and Back Traces views and filtering function calls in Plain View.

Memory profiling enhancements in dotTrace 3.0 include:

• Finalized objects are detected, including those not properly disposed of in your code.
• Possibility to merge strongly-connected objects.
• Navigation to classes' source in source preview.
• Information about reachable and held objects is now serialized to disk, eliminating the necessity to recompute it on each memory snapshot opening.

Other enhancements include:

• Profiling ASP.NET applications from Microsoft Visual Studio.
• Profiling ASP.NET applications using Visual Studio Development server.
• Automatic creation of .config files for profiling modes not supported for the .NET 1.1 framework.

An overview of dotTrace 3.0 is available at http://www.jetbrains.com/profiler/. Information on new features can be found at http://www.jetbrains.com/profiler/features/newfeatures.html.

The release is available for download at http://www.jetbrains.com/ profiler/download/. A free 10-day evaluation license enabling full functionality can be requested at the same URL.

In short, there are no more evaluation licenses. Just download, install and enjoy the product for 30 days! We only ask for one thing: after you've tried the software, select Submit Feedback from ReSharper menu and tell us your thoughts. We take feedback seriously.

ReSharper 2.5.2 can be downloaded at http://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/download/.

On the topic of evaluation licenses, our ReSharper 3.0 EAP (Early Access Program) has also moved to the new no-license evaluation model. Here's how it works:

• All EAP builds run under evaluation for 30 days; each EAP build restarts the evaluation period (released about once every two weeks)
• Nightly builds can be downloaded, installed and used under the latest EAP evaluation; however, they do not renew the evaluation period
• Also, an evaluation period starts when you first start using the software; it does not start and expire on pre-specified dates like it used to do in previous EAPs

This scheme will provide enough evaluation overlap to span the time between the most stable builds.
