IntelliJ IDEA 9 Milestone 1

This Milestone release delivers a fresh preview of features and improvements we've implemented so far for IntelliJ IDEA 9. We encourage all early adopters to share their feedback and request more new features they want to be available in the final release. We appreciate all your input.


For Everyone on Java

Faster Environment

New background-enabled file indexing allows you to start using essential editing features almost immediately. All the advanced features become available in minutes.

Java EE 6 Support

Though the specification itself is in late beta at the moment, IntelliJ IDEA 9M1 comes with initial support for this new standard of Java enterprise application development. The support includes error highlighting and usual editing aids for JPA 2.0, EJB 3.1, JSF 2.0, Servlet 3, JSR-299 (Web Beans) and Bean Validation, as well as support for GlassFish 3 Preview. We expect our Java EE 6 support to mature to the moment of IntelliJ IDEA 9 release as Java EE 6 / Glassfish going gold.
