Hi!

The Call Hierarchy displays wrong results, when interfaces are involved. Compared to eclipse, IDEA displays additional entries, which are simply
wrong. Here is an example:

public interface I {
    public void setValue(String value);
}

public class A implements I {
    public String getValue() {
        return value;
    }

    public void setValue(String value) {
        this.value = value;
    }

    protected String value;
}

public class B implements I {
    public String getValue() {
        return value;
    }

    public void setValue(String value) {
        this.value = value;
    }

    protected String value;
}

public class Test {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        B b = new B();
        b.setValue("Test");
    }
}

When I now ask the program to display the call hierarchy of A.setValue and B.setValue, it shows me in both cases that it is called by Test.main. But
A.setValue is not called by Test.main! This problem does not occur when using the Call Hierarchy of eclipse.

Reply from Max: We automatically show call hierarchy for interface method, that's why B.setValue() matches. We probably need to ask for confirmation like Find Usages feature does.
