When a class file is opened in IntelliJ, one of three things will happen:
- The class will be decompiled and the source opened in an editor.
- The class will not be decompiled because naviation-triggered decompilation is disabled, or the class's
package has been excluded from decompilation.
- A dialog will pop up and ask you to confirm the decompilation.
These possibilities are controlled by the decompile-on-navigation setting (see
IntelliJad options)
and the exclusions setup (see
Exclusions).
