Disable real-time error checking in Intellij IDEA?

Question

Intellij IDEA checks errors as you type. Is there a way to just check for errors after you save the file? In Eclipse this is done by unchecking "General - Editors - Structured Text Editors'-> 'Report problems as you type". Is there a similar feature in Intellij IDEA?

Answer 1

Once you create your java file (or any file for that matter) exclude it from the source directory (you can do that in Module Settings -> source tab), this way the compiler wont scan that file for any compile time errors

Hope that helps
