IntelliJ IDEA 16 EAP Makes it Easier to Add Static Imports

Posted on by

Meet the fresh IntelliJ IDEA 16 EAP build, addressing a number of issues, and bringing several improvements.

Static constants are suggested, too:

If the Add unambiguous imports on the fly option is enabled in Settings → Editor → General → Auto Import, IntelliJ IDEA will import unambiguous static members on the fly.

As always, we appreciate your feedback about the new build in our discussion forum as well as your bug reports in the issue tracker.

Develop with Pleasure!
