=== IDE setup (IntelliJ)
No special steps are needed to open Spring Security in IntelliJ.
=== IDE setup (Eclipse and VS Code)
To work in Eclipse or VS Code, first generate Eclipse metadata so you can import the project into Eclipse or VS Code:
[indent=0]
----
./gradlew cleanEclipse eclipse
----
If you have not built the project yet, run `./gradlew publishToMavenLocal` first so dependencies are resolved.
*VS Code:* Open the repository root as a folder. The repository includes `.vscode/settings.json` which disables automatic Gradle import so that the generated Eclipse metadata (`.classpath`, `.project`) is used. Do not use the Gradle for Java extension to import the project.
*Eclipse:* File → Import → General → Existing Projects into Workspace, then select the repository root.
The build uses a custom Eclipse plugin to work around Gradle dependency cycles that confuse IDE metadata generation. You may see Eclipse warnings about `xml-apis` from some test dependencies; those are excluded in the build and can be ignored.
