I use to use IntelliJ, lately I have updated to IntelliJ EAP now the checkbox "Import Maven projects automatically" has dissapeard , so every time I add a new dependecy I need to do it manually.Is there any other way or work around to have this checkbox visible again , or to enable auto import?
Thanks
Search "Enable auto-reload after any changes" in the action dialog.
They have renamed and relocated the functionality to the Maven tool window as a control with the latest version.
"We’ve also removed the option to enable/disable auto-import from the settings, as the improvements mentioned above have made it redundant."
By following ways you can Import Maven projects automatically:
For InteliJ IDEA 14 upwards:
Click Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Build Tools -> Maven -> Importing -> TICK "Import Maven projects automatically".
For InteliJ IDEA 2020 upwards:
Click Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Build Tools -> TICK "Reload projects after changes in the build scripts" and "Any changes"
Press ctrl + shift + a to open the "actions" dialog.
From there, type "import maven projects automatically". Click that option and it should work.
They have added now in build tools -> select Any changes for reload project after changes in the build scripts.
