javacc plugin 1.10 not working with Idea 23.1 #29

Closed WolfgangGruber closed 1 year ago

WolfgangGruber commented 1 year ago

I don't know of any information, how to use the javacc plugin, but from my discussion with chatGPT I expect that after installation and right clicking on "new" I get a context menu saying "javacc File". And after editing a .jj file and right clicking I should get a context menu with "run javacc". Either one happens.

The installation is successfull. An opened .jj file shows the three yellow line icon in its tab, but not in the project pane. After clearing the file cache, the icon appears for about 20 seconds and then changes back.

Please clarify, how to use the plugin and to compile with javacc within Idea.

Thank you, Wolfgang Gruber

I'm afraid chatGPT misled you as these features do not exist. You can create a .jj or .jjt file and get code insight within it, but not run javacc from within the IDE.

This sounds like unexpected behavior but I can't reproduce the issue. The plugin works fine in 2023.1 to me. Please provide more information about how to reproduce the issue and how it impairs your usage of the plugin.
