Intelij run configuration not working

See original GitHub issue

JabRef version

Other (please describe below)

Operating system

GNU / Linux

Details on version and operating system

Manjaro with GNOME 42.4, Jabref main branch (commit 349c879)

Checked with the latest development build

I made a backup of my libraries before testing the latest development version.
I have tested the latest development version and the problem persists

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

Setup local workspace, including Intelij IDE configuration;
Try running application with JabRef Main run config;
Errors stop the application from running.

This behavior seems to manifest in two ways:

Intelij cannot run because the application’s main entry point has changed from org.jabref.gui.JabRefMain to org.jabref.cli.Launcher in PR #9217. I’ve been able to run normally by just changing the entry point on the config file (and was not sure if this was going to be reverted, as PR #9257 was still open at the time)
Now, I cannot run even with the entry point change because of a build error on org.jabref.gui.desktop.os.Windows. See appendix for error message.

I will remove the IntelliJ run config in a PR - it does not run on my machine, too. 😇

The manual start can be triggered at Launcher.java:

Runs only with Gradle.

Does NOT work with IntellIJ:

I don’t know about a quick fix here…

I worked on refining the guideline. It is currently under review at https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/pull/9355.

You have to configure IntelliJ to use Gradle for Build and running - and “IntelliJ IDEA” for test:

IntelliJ creates the launch configurations. Check out following steps:
