Starting an SBT project in IntelliJ IDEA 13.0.2 Ultimate (build #UI-133.696): clarification needed -

setup:

• i created new sbt project in intellij idea 13.0.2 ultimate (fig. 1).

• i named project "test" (fig. 1).

• after creation, fig. 2 shows project directory structure.

i have 3 main questions:

question 1:

• none of source folders (shown in fig. 5) generated idea 13.
  • should create src/main/scala (and others) hand ?

question 2:

• what difference between 2 modules created ("test"- fig. 4 , "test-build" - fig. 5) ?
  • which 1 should use ?
  • i assume test, purpose of test-build then?

question 3:

• what meaning of "target/scala-2.10/src_managed/main" source folder in "test" module (fig. 4)?

  • what should use ?

  • what kind of sources should go there ?

thanks reading.

none of source folders (shown in fig. 5) generated idea 13.

you don't need them proper sbt work , hence sbt doesn't insist on them available (and perhaps that's reason why idea doesn't create them default).

should create src/main/scala (and others) hand ?

nope. eventually, don't need bother. scala sources can go main directory of project , sbt see them.

there's caveat - you'll have use new > file create scala files main directory not marked sources root.

what difference between 2 modules created ("test"- fig. 4 , "test-build" - fig. 5) ?

test project while test-build build configuration's project. sbt recursive.

which 1 should use ?

test

i assume test, purpose of test-build then?

see sbt recursive , read entire getting started.

what meaning of "target/scala-2.10/src_managed/main" source folder in "test" module (fig. 4)? should use ? kind of sources should go there ?

it's sbt's output directory , should not worry now.

i advise reading entire getting started going sbt.
