Description

« Hide

Type an ant script:

<project name="exception" default="main">
	<property file="c:/existent-dir/existent-file.properties"/>
	<target name="main">
		<echo message="${existent.key}"/>
	</target>
</project>

All is Ok. Externally change the content of existen-file.properties: add-remove keys, etc. Add more properties files to existent-dir.
Return to IDEA. Invoke code completion in property/@file attribute - changes are not reflected there. Invoke code completion in echo/@message - no changes too. Reopen project does not help. User has to restart IDEA to see his changes.

Would be very nice either to reload all referred resources automatically, or (if the former way is hard) to provide some command for user to manually force the reloading of requested files.
