Glossary |
Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) : The Abstract Syntax Tree represents the structure of source input files. → Program Structure Interface
Annotator : Provides semantic highlighting based on underlying → Program Structure Interface elements. → Inspection
Document Object Model (DOM) : DOM API abstracts working with XML files based on a custom semantic model.
Event Dispatch Thread (EDT) : The Event Dispatch Thread handles all Swing events. See also General Threading Rules.
Extension Point (EP) : Most functionality is provided by Using Extension Points provided by the platform or plugins. Plugins can also define their own to allow extensibility.
External System (ES) : External System allows integrating external project management systems.
File Based Index (FBI) : File Based Index allows storing key-value information based on the project's files.
Inspection : Supports configurable semantic highlighting. → Annotator
Intention : Provides an automated fix for commonly encountered code problems.
Local History (LVCS) : A builtin → Version Control System tracking all changes in the project locally.
JetBrains Project System (JPS) : Represents the project model in External Build process.
JetBrains Runtime (JBR) : The JetBrains Runtime is the default bundled runtime for all IntelliJ Platform-based IDEs by JetBrains.
Program Structure Interface (PSI) : The Program Structure Interface represents a syntactic and semantic code model of the source input files. → Abstract Syntax Tree → Stubs
Read Action : Allows accessing code-related data structures for reading purposes. See also General Threading Rules. → Write Action
Run Configuration (RC) : A Run Configuration allows running external processes from within the IDE.
Stubs : A subset of a → Program Structure Interface tree in a binary serialized compact format, see Stub Indexes.
Version Control System (VCS) : The API for Version Control System allows accessing builtin as well as adding custom implementations.
Virtual File (VF) : A Virtual File represents a file in a → Virtual File System.
Virtual File System (VFS) : A Virtual File System provides a unified API for working with files represented as → Virtual File.
Write Action : Allows accessing code-related data structures for writing purposes. See also General Threading Rules. → Read Action
