Require

I want to develop this plugin, but Java Require version 1.6 is very old. I can’t get 1.6 JDK and Gradle unsupport old java version. Please update newest JDK version.

So, I got 1.6 and built it but gradle says it is not support.

java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: org/gradle/internal/installation/beacon/InstallationBeacon : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0

I want you to tell me , How to develop this plugin .

I’d like to develop auto-complete with all properties in resource. In many cases, optional parameters is always necessary, so we want to automatically complement all properties ( but, not include duplicate parameter ) when creating new resources.

@umisora FYI: To achieve that you need to modify InsertHandlersUtil#addHCLBlockRequiredProperties and HCLBlockMissingPropertyInspection (pass argument whether to distinguish ‘required’ flag on line 91 or not)

You can simply test plugin using ./gradlew runIde command, it will start IDEA 15.0.6 with plugin. There you can test all features.

Also ‘groovy’ configuration is not correct, ‘gradle’ should be used.
