IntelliJ IDEA If you use IntelliJ 4.0 to check out projects from CVS make sure you click the "Change keyword substitution" to binary button in the CVS checkout procedure. Failure to do this could cause your project to fail to compile since the jar files will be corrupt.

IntelliJ IDEA, the Java development tool that I am liking more and more, uses log4J to build a log file that is stored as : USER_HOME\.IntelliJIdea\system\log\idea.log

(On my windows installation, USER_HOME is C:\Documents and Settings\timcguir )

This file has lots of information about the internal workings of IDEA and has error messages that explained to me why the IDEA GUI Builder wasn't working like I expected.
