I know I can print System.out.println()
with "sout" + tab
. Is there a way I can do it with "Syso" + ctrl + space
like in eclipse?
In Idea 17eap:
sout
: Prints
System.out.println();
soutm
: Prints current class and method names to System.out
System.out.println("$CLASS_NAME$.$METHOD_NAME$");
soutp
: Prints method parameter names and values to System.out
System.out.println($FORMAT$);
soutv
: Prints a value to System.out
System.out.println("$EXPR_COPY$ = " + $EXPR$);
Yeah, you can do it. Just open Settings -> Live Templates. Create new one with syso
as abbreviation and System.out.println($END$);
as Template text.
syso
and press Tab
to complete the statement? We do something similar while defining the main method: we type in psvm
and press Tab
which automatically makes it public static void main(String[] args)
.
If you want to know all the shortcut in intellij hit Ctrl + J. This shows all the shortcuts. For System.out.println()
type sout
and press Tab.
Open up Settings (By default is Alt + Ctrl + S) and search for Live Templates. In the upper part there's an option that says "By default expand with TAB" (TAB is the default), choose "Custom" and then hit "change" and add the keymap "ctrl+spacebar" to the option "Expand Live Template/Emmet Abbreviation".
Now you can hit ctrl + spacebar and expand the live templates. Now, to change it to "syso" instead of "sout", in the Live Templates option, theres a list of tons of options checked, go to "other" and expand it, there you wil find "sout", just rename it to "syso" and hit aply.
Hope this can help you.
On MAC you can do sout + return
or ⌘+j
(cmd+j) opens live template suggestions, enter sout
to choose System.out.println();
Type sout
and press Tab, it will generate System.out.println();
Type sou
and press Tab, It will generate System.out.printf("");

S
. It should be small 's' then code suggestion will actually suggestsout
which on selection will do it.
