( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Installed IntelliJ Community Version and the Perl-Plugin which points to the CamelCade git-repo.

Was a bit of a hassle to tell the editor/project to use the (preactivated) Portable Strawberry aka "System Perl", otherwise the modules were not indexed. IOW no defaulting to existing Perl.

Typing Ctrl-Q "Quick Documentation" while over (not right after) a Perl symbol (here split ) showed the whole perldoc in a pop-up with scroll-bars.

The IDE knows a feature "Quick definition" (Ctrl-Shift-I) which had no effect on split , similarly Ctrl-P and Alt-Q.

Auto-completions listed arguments for just a small number of built-ins like say([$filehandle, @list]) but those args weren't included even that a help message suggested that pressing tab would help permutate. In this case - say - pressing Ctrl-P listed them again in a pop-up.

There was an error message that Xsubs declaration file was missing, but regenerating it didn't help with the things described.

Typing Ctrl-Shift-Space like in Notepad++ produced only a "No Suggestions" message.

DISCLAIMER: First time user of this IDE, might have certainly missed obvious options.

edit

Code-Snippets are available, they are called "Live Templates" (Ctrl-J)

Mostly for POD and Moose and those Perl standard statements known from Textmate and available in all IDEs.

It has also some snippets for "special" syntax like do { }', like this two 'do are listed in the auto-completion list, chosing the template inserts do { ^ } with the cursor ^ inside the brackets.

There is also a similar snippet sa for anonymous sub expanded to sub { ^ } but it's not listed in auto-completion when typing sub , even after a = ...!

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
