## Meaning of Versions
|
|
|
|
Versions are defined in `build.gradle.kts`.
|
|
|
|
`intellij.version` is used for -
|
|
1. Building the plugin, so the source code needs to be compatible with it.
|
|
2. Determining the _maximum_ supported version. This means that it needs to be updated every time a new IntelliJ _Branch_ version is released. For example, 2021.1, 2021.2, etc.
|
|
|
|
`tasks.patchPluginXml.sinceBuild` is used for -
|
|
1. Determinig the _minimum_ supported version, so the code must not reference classes not introduced yet.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Testing
|
|
|
|
* Use Gradle to run the plugin.
|
|
* _Don't_ use IntelliJ to run the plugin.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
ktfmt/ktfmt_idea_plugin $ ./gradlew runIde
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Point `intellij.alternativeIdePath` in `build.gradle.kts` to a local installation of IntelliJ / Android Studio to test the plugin with it. Don't forget to enable the plugin. Easiest way: Cmd-shift-A, type 'ktfmt', look for Preferences.
|
|
|
|
Another way: change `intellij.version` and comment out `alternativeIdePath`. This will run the plugin on whatever version you put - it'll be downloaded through Gradle.
