Build Number Ranges

Use this reference of build number ranges to specify the correct since-build and until-build values in your plugin descriptor.

Starting with IntelliJ IDEA 9 beta, a multi-part build number is used, such as IU-162.94.

The number consists of the following parts:

• Product ID (IC for IDEA Community, IU for IDEA Ultimate, RM for RubyMine, PY for PyCharm, etc.)
• Branch number (162)
• Build number in the branch (94)

Since version 2016.2 of the IntelliJ Platform, branch numbers are based on the YYYY.R IDE release version numbers. The branch number takes the last two digits of the year, and the R release number. For example, 162 for 2016.2, 163 for 2016.3, 171 for 2017.1. In this scheme IU-162.94 corresponds to the 2016.2 release.

Starting with 2016.2 the build number may also have multiple components: IU-162.94, IU-162.94.11, IU-162.94.11.256.42. This gives more flexibility for third-party plugins and IDE developers. Plugins may specify compatibility versions more precisely; IDE vendors may have build numbers that are based on a specific IntelliJ Platform version and also specify additional internal version (e.g. 256.42 in XX-162.94.11.256.42) to allow plugin developers for their IDE to specify compatibility.

Multi-part build numbers can also be used in the since-build and until-build attributes of idea-version. Usually you should omit the product ID and use only the branch number and build number, for example:

<idea-version since-build="94.539"/>
<idea-version since-build="162.539.11"/>
<idea-version until-build="162"/> <!-- any build until 162, not inclusive!-->
<idea-version since-build="162" until-build="162.*"/> <!-- any 162-based version, 162.94, 162.94.11, etc.-->

The following branch numbers are used for IntelliJ Platform based products and build numbers of recent IDE versions:

Branch number	IntelliJ Platform version
171	2017.1
163	2016.3
162	2016.2

Note that there is no 170. In the YYYY.R versioning scheme, the R part starts at 1.
