sometimes forge command is not visible in both windows and linux environments

[mani_mylavarapu]

I am trying to create a forge addon.My environment is linux.I built the project with maven and then i installed the addon.Lets say my command is "abc".Forge addon installation went successful.So now when i try Crtl+Alt+4(my IDE is IntelliJ)i can see "abc" command in the list of my commands.Well this makes sense as this is obviously expected one.But when i makes some changes again in my file and then build and install ,then try Ctrl+Alt+4 now i cant see any "abc" command.There are no errors in log.And this issue cant be reproduced every single time.Did someone faced issue like this before.

Hi,

I have a workaround I found in another post.

Exit forge, edit ~/.forge/addons/installed.xml  , remove the line of your addon

remove the directory of your addon in ~/.forge/addons/

redo addon-build-and-install

Also, be sure to use the same version of Forge in shell & ide

My alternate when I test the result in Eclipse is to increase the version number before each build.

Dirts the ~/.addons folder but avoid to restart Eclipse  (File / restart) to remove lock on the addon's jar
