    We’ll also consider the cases when IntelliJ IDEA licenses were primarily bought for Rust development with the IntelliJ Rust plugin and which options we can suggest to our users in these cases. Please stay tuned!

    Last time I tried this, the plugin was incapable of actually showing compile errors in the project view and they said their false positive error rate was too high to enable it (https://github.com/intellij-rust/intellij-rust/pull/8373). That was a dealbreaker for me compared to VSCode.

    Intellgi Rust is a good option.

    Agreed. Specifically, I've found the intellij rust plugin on top of Clion to be great.

    figure out testing, you probably want to structure your app in a way that allows you to run it in testing (Zero to Production has a great approach to that). There are helpers for testing like sqlx::test but CLion Rust plugin doesn't support them yet, it breaks code analysis (afaik the fix is not released yet).

    Any closer to getting error highlighting on files working properly (https://github.com/intellij-rust/intellij-rust/pull/8373)? That's a major benefit of rust-analyzer to me.
  • Debug on Windows?
    3 projects | /r/rust | 27 Dec 2022
    Could you please clarify whether the problem affects exactly local variables' values or function parameters' values? It is a known bug that the CLion's debugger cannot show function parameters' values on Windows: https://github.com/intellij-rust/intellij-rust/issues/6676. This is a major issue and we are working on it. But if you are facing such problems in any other scenarios, please let us know and share a problematic code snippet if possible
