Arch Linux User Repository

@KingCrunch Please see phpstorm page. It depends on 'Oracle JRE 1.6+ or OpenJDK 1.7+'

The intelliJ-platform requires Java >=8

@declasun: thx for the hint. I don't think that a wrapper around the startscript is a good way to achieve this. I've just added a profile.d file and a note in the PKGBUILD.

@frederik: intellij-idea-ultimate-edition [0] recently merged this [1] patch so IDEA would prefer the system JDK. Could you also make the same change here?

Thanks Wietse for the explanation and workaround. Starting PhpStorm with `WEBIDE_JDK=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk /opt/phpstorm/bin/phpstorm.sh` from the terminal did in fact work for me. I copied the desktop file located at /usr/share/applications/jetbrains-phpstorm.desktop to ~/.local/share/applications/, changed the Exec line from Exec="/opt/phpstorm/bin/phpstorm.sh" %f to Exec=env WEBIDE_JDK=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk "/opt/phpstorm/bin/phpstorm.sh" %f logged out and back in (GNOME wouldn't pick up the new desktop file otherwise) and Bob's your uncle. No more ugly fonts. This fix should persist through updates.

@retzudo PhpStorm uses it's own packaged Oracle Java JDK, which causes the fonts to be terribly ugly. Phpstorm tries to locate a JDK installation directory which will be used to run the IDE in the following order: WEBIDE_JDK, ../jre, JDK_HOME, JAVA_HOME, "java" in PATH. The clean solution is to set the WEBIDEA_JDK environment variable to the OpenJDK path. For some reason this did not work for me, but I did not feel like spending a lot of time to find out why, so I just renamed /opt/phpstorm/jre to something else so PhpStorm would use JDK_HOME instead. (I will have to do this after each PhpStorm update.) PhpStorm does not officially support OpenJDK, but I have experienced no problems so far.

With PhpStorm 10 I once again have font rendering issues that other people and I had with PhpStorm 9 (i.e. no anti-aliasing). The PKGBUILD for 9 had these lines to fix the issue: # fixing FS#40934 here too sed -i 's/lcd/on/' "${pkgdir}/usr/share/phpstorm/bin/phpstorm${SUFFIX}.vmoptions" echo "-Dswing.aatext=true" >> "${pkgdir}/usr/share/phpstorm/bin/phpstorm${SUFFIX}.vmoptions" So I tried to replicate that in /opt/phpstorm/bin/phpstorm64.vmoptions which didn't help. I also copied the file to ~/.WebIde100/ which also didn't fix the font rendering. Running PhpStorm via `_JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on' phpstorm` also didn't make any difference. I have infinality packages installed (fonts & JRE/JDK) and font rendering in PhpStorm 9 (installed via commit b164826 & makepkg) works correctly. Suggestions?

@ram4nd Could you point me to a complete list of additional tools which phpstrom optdepends on?

Please add optional dependencies for closure-linter, code-sniffer, etc... Linters and tools for code validation.
