How to install IntelliJ IDEA 2017.3.1 Released with Few Fixes on Ubuntu 17.04, 17.10

  JetBrains’ IntelliJ IDEA is a Java integrated development environment (IDE) for developing computer software. It is developed by JetBrains (formerly known as IntelliJ), and is available as an Apache 2 Licensed community edition, and in a proprietary commercial edition. Both can be used for commercial development.


IntelliJ IDEA 2017.3.1 Changelog:
  • fixed: External system: do not propose to restore removed modules created for the project preview
  • Performance: High memory usage by VfsAwareMapReduceIndex
  • Exception: CCE at com.intellij.execution.testframework.sm.runner.SMTRunnerTreeStructure.getParentElement
  • fixed: "Suspicious collections method calls": false positive if argument type is superset of collection type
  • fixed: Element: class com.intellij.psi.impl.source.PsiJavaFileImpl because: different providers:
  • fixed: Major formatting regression from 2017.2.6 to 2017.3
  • fixed: Navigation bar ignores context when operated with keyboard
  • fixed: Clearing output directory slows down total build time
  • fixed: IDEA thinks build caches are corrupt when there's just a file that's locked, forcing unnecessary rebuild
  • fixed: bad build command options to javac in Java 9, causing "--patch-module specified more than once"
  • fixed: Java compiler error navigation jumps to a wrong column when using tab size other than 8 spaces
  • Usability: Full project rebuild is should be triggered after adding module-info.java 
  • See announcement for details.
