This is not really a plugin but an external tool that displays a dialog to
allow you to paste in a stacktrace and have IDEA make the filenames
clickable automagically.
Internally all it does is take the contents of the text area and send it to
System.out this then appears in the idea Messages console all nicely
highlighted.
To add it as an external tool:
* Tools | IDE Options | External Tools
* Add a new Tool
* Name: Stacktrace
* Group: HiLight
* Description: Hilight a stacktrace
* Leave the "Show Console" option checked.
* Uncheck "Synchronize files after execution"
* Program : $JDKPath$\bin\java.exe
* Arguments : -jar c:\hilite\HiLightTool.jar
To use:
* Right-Click in the editor and select HiLite | Stacktrace
* When the window opens, paste in the stacktrace from the clipboard with
ctrl-v and click done.
* The window will close and the stacktrace will be hilighted in the messages
toolwindow.
Updated Will now attempt to tidy up those stacktraces where lines got split accorss several lines.
Hope this is of some use to you.
