Does you mean for this feature to imply that module libraries will now have all the same functionality & UI as project/global libraries?
Sorry, I was sure there was a request for that in IDEADEV somewhere. Apparently the backlogged issue is the only one, so I am reviving it (IDEADEV-14072)
Maxim, does this mean this feature will not make it into Idea 7.0?
That would really be a pity - the request is ages old. In Selena you have turned project configuration upside down and introduced a new fundamental concept (facets). It really hasn't become either harder or easier - just different. Some bugs are fixed but a plethora of new bugs have been introduced. (And I don't see that they are worked on, at least currently). Furthermore it seems modul/project/global libraries already all have been made to use the same structure (in Demetra module libraries were a special kind of beast) which should ease implementation of this feature. Now you slip the single exactly that one feature that could really make project configuration easier?! I gotta agree. From all things about the project configuration, I also think this is one that would make a real difference for better usability - especially when creating and evolving new projects.
Will it have to slip again or is there still a chance to resolve this in Diana?
Especially now with the improved packaging UI, this is the most outstanding issue that project configuration still has. |
