Intellij IDEA code completion does not suggest classes coming from maven dependencies


This may sound stupid but here I go (there's no silly question after all, right?): I'm working on a JAVA Maven module with IntelliJ IDEA and the code completion feature works fine suggesting classes from both my module and the JDK.

However, the code completion feature does not seem to be aware of classes coming from Maven dependencies my module depends on.

For instance, my module depends on Maven dependencies such as joda-time. The code completion popup does not suggest classes such as LocalDate.

Here's my code completion configuration:

What am I missing? Thanks in advance.


Solution

  • Found the solution:

    1. Clicked on File > Invalide caches/restart
    2. Chose Invalidate and Restart
    3. After restarting IntelliJ rebuild indexes from scratch and code completion works like a charm.
