Hi Lukman, 

Based on your requirements, I would say that this probably would meet the criteria for #1, "a solution either to an advanced engineering problem at the time of writing a thesis" - It is a fairly complicated task, but certainly achievable. George will be your primary point of contact for the next 2 weeks. (I am on vacation at the moment.)

We have a "starter project" for IntelliJ integration here:

https://github.com/forge/intellij-idea-plugin

To get started, I would first look at these guides:

https://github.com/forge/core#jboss-forge-20
https://github.com/forge/jbosstools-forge#the-forge-tools-project
https://github.com/forge/furnace#furnace

This should give you an overview of the forge design and architecture. And an example of our Eclipse integration, to which your IntelliJ integration will likely be similar.

Also please join the #forge channel on irc.freenode.net chat. This is where we have most discussions during the day (monday-friday, and sometimes on weekends). But it is of course always a good idea to email forge-dev if nobody is around on IRC. Forge-dev is also good for discussing topics that are more complicated, and more people might want to join in :)

Cheers! Talk to you soon,
Lincoln

PS. How did you find out about our project?

Hi all ,

My name is Lukman Adekunle, I am an Msc student from the University of Tartu. I am hoping to take on the topic 

"Support Forge 2.0 in IntelliJ Idea and/or NetBeans" . The Criteria for a masters thesis topic in my school are the following:

– a solution either to an advanced engineering problem at the time of writing a thesis

or an answer to a novel research question 

-Should demonstrate your professional qualities and mastery in the field .

is this a good topic ? 

if yes what are things needed to get me started ? 

 

Regards,

Lukman
