You can set this setting here.

In **IDEA 14**+ the sequence is:  

`Settings` &gt; `Editor` &gt; `Code Style` &gt; `Java` &gt; `Imports` &gt; `Class count to use import with &#39;*&#39;`

In older version of IDEA:

`Settings` -&gt; `Java` -&gt; `Code Style` -&gt; `Imports` -&gt; `Class count to use import with &#39;*&#39;`



The feature can not be disabled. You need to set it to a high value, e.g. 99.

In 2016.1.1 version
You should also remove the lines under `Packages to Use Import with &#39;*&#39;`, 
e.g. `import javax.*;`

**IntelliJ IDEA:**

* **14** &amp; **15** &amp; **16 EAP**

 `File &gt; Settings... &gt; Editor &gt; Code Style &gt; Java &gt; Imports` &gt; in `General` area add a big number for `Class count to use import with &#39;*&#39;:` / `Names count to use static import with &#39;*&#39;:`

 ![File &gt; Settings... &gt; Editor &gt; Code Style &gt; Java &gt; Imports &gt; General &gt; Class count to use import with &#39;*&#39;][1]


**IntelliJ IDEA:**

 * **12** &amp; **13**

 `File &gt; Settings... &gt; Code Style &gt; Java &gt; Imports` &gt; in `General` area add a big number for `Class count to use import with &#39;*&#39;:`
![File &gt; Settings... &gt; Code Style &gt; Java &gt; Imports &gt; General &gt; Class count to use import with &#39;*&#39;][2]

 P.S.: `Java` is after `Code Style` in the path.

And you also have to remove package names from the &quot;Packages to use import with *&quot; list box just below the &quot;Class count to use import with *&quot; text boxes. Swing and AWT are there by default I think. I still was having import javax.swing.*; added even though I had the class count set to 999. I used the minus sign button to remove Swing and Awt from the box and then it worked.

I&#39;m a migrating Eclipse IDE user and am learning my way round IntelliJ IDEA 9.

By default Eclipse IDE won&#39;t use a starred import until you import 99 classes from the same package, so it practically never happens.

But IntelliJ IDEA seems only too keen to do it, and I can&#39;t work out how to disable it.

For example, after typing `JList` then &lt;kbd&gt;ALT&lt;/kbd&gt; + &lt;kbd&gt;ENTER&lt;/kbd&gt; to auto-import, the whole `javax.swing` package is imported instead of just the class I specify.

I tried excluding `javax.swing` from the auto-completion, but that just stops _any_ Swing classes from being suggested, which is counter-productive.

I have a third party WSDL, I need to write code in Java for a web service client to invoke the operations in the third party WSDL. Right now, I have generated the client stub using the WSDL2JAVA tool from Axis and used the XMLbeans for data binding. 

1. What is the best approach to do this JAVA?
2. I read about SAAJ, looks like that will be more granular level of approach?
3. Is there any other way than using the WSDL2Java tool, to generate the code. Maybe `wsimport` in another option. What are the pros and cons?
4. Can someone send the links for some good tutorials on these topics?
5. What are the options we need to use while generating the code using the WSDL2Java? 

I used some of the basic things initially. Now I have these options 

    C:\axis2-1.5.1\bin&gt;wsdl2java -uri  mywsdlurl  -o client -p somepackage -d xmlbeans -s -t -ssi

What are the main benefits of using maven compared to let&#39;s say ant ?
It seems to be more of a annoyance than a helpful tool.
I use maven 2, with plain Eclipse Java EE (no m2eclipse), and tomcat.

Supporters of maven believe that 

1. Maven lets you get your package dependencies easily

2. Maven forces you to have a standard directory structure

In my experience

1. Figuring out package dependencies is really not that hard. You rarely do it anyway. Probably once during project setup and few more during upgrades. With maven you&#39;ll end up fixing mismatched dependencies, badly written poms, and doing package exclusions anyway.

2. Slow FIX-COMPILE-DEPLOY-DEBUG cycle, which kills productivity. This is my main gripe. You make a change, the you have to wait for maven build to kick in and wait for it to deploy. No hot deployment whatsoever.

Or am I just doing it wrong ? Please point me to the right direction, I&#39;m all ears.

Why maven? What are the benefits?

I want to implement the union, intersect, difference and reverse operations in Java.

First I have 2 instances of `ArrayList&lt;Integer&gt;`

    a = [0,2,4,5,6,8,10]
    b = [5,6,7,8,9,10]

a union b should return `c = [0,2,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]`

a intersect b should return `c = [5,8,10]`

a difference b should return `c = [0,2,4]`

reverse `a = [10,8,6,5,4,2,0]`

Something like this.

**Update**: I have to start with this template:

    import java.util.Collection;


    public class IntSet {
	
	private ArrayList&lt;Integer&gt; intset;
	
	public IntSet(){
		intset = new ArrayList&lt;Integer&gt;();
	}
	
	public void insert(int x){
		intset.add(x);
	}
	
	public void remove(int x){
		//implement here
		intset.indexOf(x);
	}
	
	public boolean member(int x){
		//implement here
		return true;
	}
	
	public IntSet intersect(IntSet a){
		//implement here
		return a;
	}
	
	public IntSet union(IntSet a){
		//implement here
		return a;
	}
	
	public IntSet difference(IntSet a){
		//implement here
		IntSet b = new IntSet();

How to do union, intersect, difference and reverse data in java

I really like the remote debugging facilities of the JVM. But I wonder how it works internally.

My assumption: It is done through a JVM feature where the running process is downloading/using the source-code from the attached remote-debugger (like IDE) It knows the line of the current stack-trace and then can jump to the respective IDE breakpoint. The communication of stack-trace and introspection of the application state is then done either through sockets or shared-memory (setting of remote debugger).

Has anybody interesting links/resources on that?

I&#39;m using the jQuery [AutoComplete][1] plugin combined with ajax. Do you know how can I show a progress indicator while the ajax search is performed?

This is my current code.

    &lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;
        $(&quot;#autocomplete-textbox&quot;).autocomplete(&#39;http://www.example.com/AutoComplete/FindUsers&#39;);
    &lt;/script&gt;
    
    &lt;div&gt;
    	&lt;input type=&quot;text&quot; id=&quot;autocomplete-textbox&quot; /&gt;
    	&lt;span class=&quot;autocomplete-animation&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;ajaxanimation&quot; src=&quot;../img/indicator.gif&quot;)&quot;/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;

The FindUsers URL returns a user list in the content.

jQuery autocomplete: How to show an animated gif loading image

I spend *way* too much time fumbling around because Vim doesn&#39;t handle closing braces like most IDEs do. Here&#39;s what I want to happen:

Type this:

    if( whatever )
    { &lt;CR&gt;

and get this:

    if( whatever )
    {
      |  
    }

where `&lt;CR&gt;` mean hit the &lt;kbd&gt;ENTER&lt;/kbd&gt; key and `|` is the position of the cursor. This is what Eclipse does. It&#39;s what Visual Studio does. And it&#39;s what I want Vim to do.

I&#39;ve seen a few plugins, tried a few, and none of them seem to give me this behavior. Surely I can&#39;t be the first programmer to want this.

Automatically insert a matching brace in Vim

I&#39;ve searched everywhere, but I can&#39;t seem to find any help...

I have some textboxes that are created dynamically via JS, so I need to bind all of their classes to an autocomplete. As a result, I need to use the new .live() option.

As an example, to bind all items with a class of .foo now and future created:

    $(&#39;.foo&#39;).live(&#39;click&#39;, function(){
      alert(&#39;clicked&#39;);
    });

It takes (and behaves) the same as .bind(). However, I want to bind an autocomplete...

This doesn&#39;t work:

    $(&#39;.foo&#39;).live(&#39;autocomplete&#39;, function(event, ui){
      source: &#39;url.php&#39; // (surpressed other arguments)
    });

How can I use .live() to bind autocomplete?

UPDATE

Figured it out with Framer:

    $(function(){
      $(&#39;.search&#39;).live(&#39;keyup.autocomplete&#39;, function(){
        $(this).autocomplete({
          source : &#39;url.php&#39;
        });
      });
    });



Bind jQuery UI autocomplete using .live()

I use ctags, taglist, etc., to have auto completion in Vim. However, it is very limited compared to Visual Studio intellisense or Eclipse auto-completion. I am wondering whether it is possible to tune Vim to:

1. Show auto-completion whenever . or -&gt; are typed. But only after some text that might be a variable (e.g. avoid showing auto completion after a number).

2. Show function parameters when ( is typed.

3. Stop removing the auto completion list when some delete all characters after . or -&gt;: When I enter a variable name, then press . or -&gt; to search for a certain member, I frequently have to delete all the characters I type after the . or -&gt;, but this makes Vim hide the auto completion list. I would like to keep it visible unless I press Esc.

4. Showing related auto completion: When I type a variable and press ^X ^O, it usually shows me all the tags in the ctags file. I would like to have it showing only the tags related to the variable.

Thanks for the help.

**EDIT**: Some people are voting for this question, but no body seems to know the answer. So just wanted to mention that you don&#39;t have to provide a complete answer; partial answers to any of the mentioned points would be good also.

Vim: Making Auto-Completion Smarter

I use atocomplete.jquery plugin to suggest input text, as the result I get this array:

    [&#39;White 023&#39;,&#39;White&#39;,&#39;White flower&#39;, &#39;Teatr&#39;]
When I start to search something thats begin from `te` substring it shows me array sorting like this:

    &#39;White&#39;,&#39;White 023&#39;,&#39;White flower&#39;, &#39;Teatr&#39;
I need something like this:

     &#39;Teatr&#39;,&#39;White&#39;,&#39;White 023&#39;,&#39;White flower&#39;

My employer wants me to use IntelliJ for Java development. Previously, I&#39;ve always used eclipse.
