This plugin provides a simple multi-user chat window, allowing you to chat with other developers on your local LAN. It takes advantage of IP Multicast, which means it doesn't require a standalone chat server, but it also means that it requires support for multicast and can't leave the LAN.

It takes advantage of IP Multicast, which means it doesn't require a standalone chat server but will only work with developers on the same subnet. It has emoticon and whisper functions.

This plugin provides a simple multi-user chat window, allowing you to chat with other developers on your local LAN. It takes advantage of IP Multicast, which means it doesn't require a standalone chat server, but it also means that it requires support for multicast and can't leave the LAN.

Currently it uses multicast group 239.1.2.3, port 1234 with a TTL of 1. These values are configurable through the IDE options panel, but require a restart to take effect.

This plugin requires IDEA 3.0, and was tested on build 629.

To install, simply copy the jar file into your $IDEA_HOME/plugins folder. You can configure chat window options through the Chat configuration screen in the IDE Options panel.

Known Issues/Questions:

  • would a split pane or textarea be more appropriate for the entry line, or is the 1 line entry ok?
  • how can I make the chat icon flash to indicate new content is in the chat window when auto-popup is off?
  • does multicast work for most people?
  • I'd like to make this an application component, but how do you get an instance of ToolBarManager? without a project?
  • Don't try to enter non numeric values in the numeric fields
