How can I rename empty package name in IDEA 11? I can rename only a package which has files in it.
For example, I have a package com.example.test with subfolder parser.xml. How can I rename parser folder? Pressing Ctrl+F6 will only let me rename xml folder.
PS. What would happen if I open a system’s file manager and rename a folder there? Will IDEA properly handle such renaming?
Click on the gear icon in the Project view and disable the Compact Empty Middle Packages option. This way the project folders will be represented in a tree where each subfolder is a separate node, so that you can rename them individually.
No, IDEA will not handle such rename as a refactoring and will not update any references.
