IntelliJ expired background

Some time ago, I reviewed the code of the teammate and found that when he moved the mouse to a method, all the comment information of the method was automatically displayed. As shown in the figure below, the IDE he and I used are both IntelliJ IDEA.

And I still follow the old way, every time I click inside the method to see the relevant method declaration, I feel outdated instantly. I asked my friend how to do it, and he said that it would be good to upgrade the IDE to the 2020 version.

I looked at my version, the 2017 version… It seemed to be out of date for many years, so I immediately updated to the flagship version of the 2020 version with trembling hands and an itching heart. After the update, I regret it a little, because the activation method of the previous version is no longer applicable to the new version. I found several activation methods on the Internet and tried them, but it didn’t work. I have no choice but to use the trial version first…

Time flies so fast, I remembered this today, opened the IDE and looked at the Expiration date, it seems that the trial version will expire next week. Thinking of the way I was in a hurry with the IDE next week, I decided to solve the problem of trial expiration today!

IntelliJ

Program

After searching around on the Internet, the solutions given by enthusiastic netizens are all in the way of jetbrains-agent plug- in, which achieves the purpose of long-term use through activation code or License Server. But I tried it, but it didn’t work. I uninstalled the IDE and tried it again, but it still didn’t work.

Just when I was at a loss, I found that the author of the jetbrains -agent plugin [1] recently published an article, the article mentioned that the jetbrains-agent project has been stopped, and he has a new idea to prolong the use time of the product, that is to re- Set trial time.

Because the information about the one-month trial of jetbrains products is written in the code, it also makes this idea feasible. Knowing that according to this idea, a new plug-in was soon made, its name is IDE Eval Reset . The great god is amazing, I think I can do it soon, and I want to give him a compliment for the execution.? .

Next, let’s talk about how to use this new plug-in.

Install

The installation is very simple, drag the following zip file (backend private message me ide_eval_retter to get the file download link) and drag it into the IDE to install it, and there will be a prompt when the installation is successful.

set up

Click Help -> Eval Reset in the menu bar, you will see two buttons and one option.

  • The button Reload is used to refresh the trial information displayed on the interface. The value for UNTIL is the time when the trial period ends.
  • After the button Reset is clicked, it will ask whether to reset the trial information and restart the IDE . Select Yes to perform the reset operation and restart the IDE to take effect , select No to do nothing. This is how to reset manually.
  • If the option Auto reset before per restart is checked, the trial information will be automatically reset every time you restart/exit the IDE after checking, you don’t need to do extra things. This operation is silent and imperceptible, and it is an automatic reset method.

I set up an automatic reset, so that I don’t need to worry about the trial expiration in the future, once and for all.

Restarted the IDE and reloaded the trial information. The UNTIL information told me that I could continue the trial until the next month~

  • If you have configured javaagent before, in order to avoid affecting some paid plugins, you need to remove the relevant information . Operation path: Help -> Edit Custom VM Options… -> Remove the line at the beginning of -javaagent:.
  • The reset needs to restart the IDE to take effect !
  • If there is no reset action for 25 days, the IDE will notify you to reset.

IDE Eval Reset project is only for personal study and research, not for commercial use!
