Illuminated Cloud Announcements

2.4.1.1 Enabled support for the 2026.2 JetBrains IDEs that are now in a release candidate state. As always, if you see issues with a pre-release IDE build, please revert to the most recent released build and let me know about the issues you've seen so that I can address them. NOTE: I've pretty much completed the Bitbucket-to-GitHub migration for the public issue tracker and user guide/wiki. I'm planning to flip the switch early next week with all external references updated accordingly and the Bitbucket functionality switched to a read-only mode with links to the replacing features in GitHub. There will be a small IC2 release to accompany this change since some of the external references are in IC2 itself. 

2.4.1.0 Many improvements and fixes for Apex multiline strings and string templates: Generalized string template support so that it works properly for both simple strings and multiline strings. Added support for bidirectional navigation and highlighting of string template variable declarations and references. Note that highlighting of references when the caret is on a ${name} reference in a string literal is still not perfect. Unfortunately this seems to be due to some aggressive caching in the JetBrains IDE itself since the string literal is technically a single element, so I may not be able to improve it beyond its current state. Added support for renaming of string template variables via both the associated map key and any reference to that key. Changed multiline string literal syntax highlighting to match how the analogs are displayed in other first-class languages such as Java and JavaScript/TypeScript. Added indent guides to show the left border of indented multiline string cont...

2.4.0.9 Issue 2979 - Fixed an issue that could cause the derived invokable declaration index to fail indexing, resulting in constant "Analyzing" behavior. Added support for aer-based integration test execution with aer 1.2.0 +. Added support for Agent Script's subagent directive type including code completion, reference navigation, syntax highlighting, etc. Fixed an issue where class methods weren't being included in System.Label variant completions.

2.4.0.8 Issue 2974 - Summer '26 / API v67.0 update Updated the SOAP client for API v67.0. Updated the API version used for primary communication with Salesforce APIs to 67.0. Added 67.0 as an available API version number for configured connections. Updated metadata.xsd based on the API v67.0 Metadata API SOAP WSDL. Updated the OST version number to prompt regeneration for system API changes in Summer '26. Updated the bundled completions?type=apex Tooling REST API response to be based on the API v67.0 REST endpoint. Updated Visualforce, Aura, and LWC components, functions, modules, etc., for Summer '26 changes. Updated the bundled SLDS CSS and SVG icons to 2.30.4. Updated for new org features, standard value set names, metadata XML file type extensions, etc. Updated all integrated API documentation. Usages of SOQL WITH SECURITY_ENFORCED in Apex source files with API version 67.0+ are now flagged as errors with a quick-fix to use WITH USER_MODE instead. Apex classes with...

2.4.0.7 Minor bug fix release before next week's Summer '26 updates: Issue 2968 (redux) - Improved fix for an NPE when copy/pasting files to the IDE project. Issue 2972 - Addressed an potentially significant IDE memory growth issue introduced accidentally in the last few builds where IC's server metadata index could be included once per-file in what should otherwise be a very slim file-to-metadata cache. Several other minor fixes. Also, if you are having issues with validation and code completion in Salesforce metadata XML files in 2026.1, it appears to be a regression in the base JetBrains IDE, and I've logged a bug in their public issue tracker that clearly shows the correct behavior in 2025.3 and earlier and incorrect behavior in 2026.1.

2.4.0.6 Issue 2964 - Fixed an issue where AbstractFileType files were being processed incorrectly during indexing. Issue 2965 - Fixed an issue where compiled LWC TypeScript *.js files weren't being properly added to deployment payloads. Issue 2966 - Increased the LWC TypeScript compilation timeout from 30 seconds to 5 minutes. If you still see TypeScript compilation timeouts, please let me know so that I can either raise it further or make it configurable. Issue 2968 - Prospective fix for an NPE when copy/pasting files to the IDE project. I say "prospective" because I've not been able to reproduce it, but the nature of the NPE is clear from the stack trace, and I've updated that logic to be defensive and use the original, non-null parameter value when necessary. Implemented a number of quality-of-life fixes and improvements: With the changes to IC in 2.4.0.5 to accommodate for how CLI-based connection access tokens are made available to clients, it was nece...

2.4.0.5 Salesforce CLI issue 3560 - IMPORTANT: The Salesforce CLI is in the process of implementing a set of security mitigation changes, some of them with breaking behavior . Starting with this build, IC accommodates for the changes around how connection access tokens are made available via CLI commands. For pre-2.136.8 CLI versions, IC will use continue to the org list and org display commands to get CLI-based connection access tokens; for 2.136.8+ CLI versions, IC will use the org auth show-access-token command. IC automatically determines the installed CLI version and, for efficiency, caches that value aggressively, though it should be resilient to CLI upgrades/downgrades while running. In support of Salesforce's goal of not having access tokens stored in-the-clear in the file system, IC no longer caches them persistently across IDE sessions. They are still cached aggressively in-memory, but if/when the IDE is restarted, IC will need to fetch access tokens for CLI-based ...
