Intellij - Add project dependency like in Eclipse

Question

I'm switching to Intellij and trying to do the same thing as in Eclipse. In Eclipse, you can add a project as a dependency in another project ( project properties -> "Java Build Path" -> "Projects" -> Click on my library project ).

The current situation is that I'm developing a library and I can test the features in another project without building the jar file every time I add new stuff to the library.

I'm trying to achieve this with Intellij but without success (the projects are both imported in Intellij).

How can I do that?

Answer 1

File > Project Structure. Then choose your module, and add any dependency, either Jar, Library or Module:

Answer 2

From File -> project structure, select Modules. You will be presented with all the added projects. Click a project and from the right hand side select Dependencies tab. This will show you projects that are not imported in red coloured text. HTH

Answer 3

File > Project Structure > Project Settings > Modules

1. Add the module you want to add as dependency.
2. Add your module dependency in your project.

If you use Maven you'll see the following message:

Module 'your-module' is imported from Maven. Any changes made in its configuration may be lost after reimporting.

→ Add your project to your pom.xml

If you don't do that, your dependency will be removed each time you reimport/refresh maven projects.
