Default Name for new Run/Debug Configuration

IntelliJ Platform
1

I wrote a plugin which contributes a com.intellij.configurationType. In the UI I bring up the Run/Debug Configurations editor and click + to create a new one. I select my configuration and the editor creates a new config of my type called “Unnamed.”

Is it possible for me to get this editor to use a name I suggest when creating?

From Run Configurations | IntelliJ Platform Plugin SDK

ConfigurationFactory classes are responsible for creating run configuration instances. The only method required to be implemented is createTemplateConfiguration(), which is called once for each project to create the run configuration template.

for dynamic naming:

To support the automatic naming of configurations created from context, the configuration should extend LocatableConfigurationBase. It supports generating a name for a configuration from its settings and tracking whether the user changed the name.

Thank you for the response. For future readers this is what I found.

My class already extends ModuleBasedConfiguration so I can’t literally follow the advice from the documentation. But I did find that the interface LocatableConfiguration is implemented so I could override String suggestedName().
