-----------------------------------
Summary: add-dependencies-for-IDEA not working anymore and
dangerous in general
Key: FLINK-15335
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-15335
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation, Quickstarts
Affects Versions: 1.9.1, 1.8.3, 1.10.0
Reporter: Nico Kruber
The quickstart's {{add-dependencies-for-IDEA}} profile (for including
{{flink-runtime}} and further dependencies that are usually {{provided}}) is
not automatically enabled with IntelliJ anymore since the {{idea.version}}
property is not set anymore (since a couple of versions of IntelliJ). My
IntelliJ, for example, sets {{idea.version2019.3}} instead but even if the
profile activation is changed to that, it is not enabled by default by IntelliJ.
There are two workarounds:
* Tick {{Include dependencies with "Provided" scope}} in the run configuration
(available in any newer IntelliJ version, probably since 2018) or
* enable the profile manually - downside: if you create a jar inside IntelliJ
via its own maven targets, the jar would contain the provided dependencies and
make it unsuitable for submission into a Flink cluster.
I propose to remove the {{add-dependencies-for-IDEA}} profile for good (from
the quickstarts) and adapt the documentation accordingly, e.g.
