2019.2

Changes in IntelliJ Platform 2019.2

org.nustaq package removed: fast-serialization library was removed, please use com.intellij.serialization.ObjectSerializer instead.
java.org.java_websocket package removed: Java-WebSocket library was removed, bundle it with your plugin instead.
com.intellij.ui.layout.Cell.invoke$default(Cell, JComponent, CCFlags[], int, GrowPolicy, String, int, Object) method parameter type changed: Signature of this function has been seriously changed without possibility to keep the old function. Change invocations and overriding of that function according to new parameters and recompile the code.
com.intellij.ui.layout.Row.label$default(Row, String, int, UIUtil.ComponentStyle, UIUtil.FontColor, boolean, int, Object) method removed: This method has been pulled up to the base class Cell; since it has default parameters, it’s a binary breaking change in Kotlin. Recompile your code to pick up the new signature.
com.yourkit package removed: YourKit library has been extracted into the separate plugin which is not bundled in all IDEs by default. YourKit library is a library for profiling IDE, and its util classes shouldn’t be used for general purpose. Instead of com.yourkit.util.Strings please use org.apache.commons.lang.StringUtils. Instead of com.yourkit.util.ArrayUtil please use org.apache.commons.lang.ArrayUtils.
org.jetbrains.intellij.build.ProductProperties.yourkitAgentBinariesDirectoryPath field removed: Please bundle performanceTesting plugin in case you would like to bundle YourKit profiler within your IDE.

com.intellij.extapi.psi.MetadataPsiElementBase class removed: Please use different base class for PSI elements.
com.intellij.ide.actions.SearchAgainAction class now extends com.intellij.openapi.editor.actionSystem.EditorAction and inherits its final method actionPerformed: Please use the com.intellij.editorActionHandler extension point to register a different handler for the action.
com.intellij.ide.actions.SearchBackAction class now extends com.intellij.openapi.editor.actionSystem.EditorAction and inherits its final method actionPerformed: Please use the com.intellij.editorActionHandler extension point to register a different handler for the action.
com.intellij.lexer.RestartableLexer.getRestartableState() method removed: Please use com.intellij.lexer.RestartableLexer.isRestartableState(int state) instead.
com.intellij.lexer.RestartableLexer.isRestartableState(int state) abstract method added: Implement method in RestartableLexer implementations.
com.intellij.lexer.RestartableLexer.start(CharSequence buffer, int startOffset, int endOffset, int initialState, TokenIterator tokenIterator) abstract method added: Implement method in RestartableLexer implementations.

2019.1

Changes in IntelliJ Platform 2019.1

kotlinx.coroutines.experimental package removed: Bundled Kotlin library is updated to 1.3 so the plugins must migrate to the stable versions of coroutines.

Changes in DataGrip and Database Tools plugin 2019.1

com.intellij.sql.psi.SqlTokens.SQL_IDENT field type changed from com.intellij.sql.psi.impl.SqlTokenType to com.intellij.sql.psi.SqlTokenType: In most of the cases, it’s enough to recompile the code. It may also be needed to check that the code doesn’t rely on the field’s type.

Changes in Kotlin Plugin API 1.3

org.jetbrains.kotlin.KtNodeTypes.BOOLEAN_CONSTANT field type changed from org.jetbrains.kotlin.KtNodeType to com.intellij.psi.tree.IElementType: Field type has been generalized. In most of the cases, it’s enough to recompile the code of the plugin.
