jkbbwr
08/22/2016, 3:35 PMsay - j
jkbbwr
08/22/2016, 3:35 PMtouch it - e

08/22/2016, 3:38 PMque? - e
evanchooly
08/22/2016, 3:38 PMi have it save on lost focus. is that what you want? - j
jkbbwr
08/22/2016, 3:38 PMNo, Im saving the file but inotify isn't picking it up so my autotools arnt firing - j
jkbbwr
08/22/2016, 3:38 PMIf I manually touch the file then it runs - y

jkbbwr
08/22/2016, 3:41 PMI don't see that setting option - y
yole
08/22/2016, 3:41 PMyou may need to install the file watchers plugin - e

jkbbwr
08/22/2016, 3:44 PMWhy does intellij not update the timestamp on the file itself? - j
jkbbwr
08/22/2016, 3:46 PMNow intellij is freaking out and touching the file thousands of times a second - y
yole
08/22/2016, 3:48 PMIntelliJ saves files by writing content to a temp file, renaming the original file to a temp name and then renaming the temp file to the original one - y
yole
08/22/2016, 3:49 PMif your inotify handler isn’t smart enough, it will not see it as a timestamp update - y
yole
08/22/2016, 3:49 PMand File Watchers is how you should set up whatever you’re doing with inotify. replace, not add - j
jkbbwr
08/22/2016, 3:50 PMWell its a third party tool that calls inotify. So basically intellij can't do this - y
yole
08/22/2016, 3:51 PMwell, congratulations, you have a broken tool - y
yole
08/22/2016, 3:51 PMthis temp file dance is how every sane text editor saves files - j
jkbbwr
08/22/2016, 3:53 PMSo you are telling me things like vim, emacs, atom, sublime all do the same thing - j
jkbbwr
08/22/2016, 3:53 PMBecause it seems currently only a problem with intellij - e
evanchooly
08/22/2016, 3:54 PMvim definitely does the temp file bit. just look for .foo.swp 😉 - j
jkbbwr
08/22/2016, 3:55 PMYet it works fine with inotify - d
dstarcev
08/22/2016, 4:04 PMI used IntelliJ with webpack-devserver (which listens to inotify) and had no problems. - d
dstarcev
08/22/2016, 4:06 PMhonestly, I had problems with virtualbox+nfs, since they do not forward inotify from the host machine to the guest one - j

08/22/2016, 4:11 PMweird - s
sreich
08/22/2016, 9:31 PMactually you should rephrase, this is how every sane text editor does it - s
sreich
08/22/2016, 9:31 PMi've seen a lot of less featureful ones that didn't have swap support - s
sreich
08/22/2016, 9:31 PMactually, Kate (kde text editor) didn't do it until a few years ago - d
