IntelliJ IDEA Jmix plugin for migration

Support
#1

Hi,

I’m looking to start the migration from CUBA to Jmix. I’m developing using the CUBA plugin for IntelliJ IDEA. Are there any problems or conflicts to be aware of if I install the Jmix plugin simultaneously?

Hi Steve,

There are no problems running the 2 plugins simultaneously.
I have installed and working with them since quite a while without any problem.

Thanks Stefan. Do you use different Java versions for CUBA and Jmix (11 and 17 respectively)?

Hi Steve,

yes, I have installed Java 11 and 17 (even an old 1.8) in my IntelliJ.
my CUBA project uses mostly Java 11, but I have also some older projects with Java 1.8.
For Jmix I use Java 17, since I have only Jmix V2 projects, which require Java 17 or higher.

If you plan to migrate a CUBA project to Jmix, you have to keep in mind to adapt the Java version afterwards. Its important to check not only the project settings to have the right Java SDK, also if you made modification on your run/debug configuration you should check there for the right Java version.

Once again, thanks for the reply and the detailed Java explanation. Sounds like I’m good to go!
