Re: [mylar-dev] Using the generic connector

[Eugene Kuleshov <eu@xxxxxxxx>]

Dan,

 Also see the FAQ in the Mylar wiki at 
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Mylar_FAQ#Generic_Web_Repository_Connector

 You can use little hack to see if your page has been loaded. With 
regexp like (.+?)(\n) preview will show content of the page - one line 
per table row. We may need to improve this or have some integration with 
QuickRex plugin.

 Regexp for your html may look something like this:

<tr>.+?<td.+?><a.+?>(.+?)</a></td>.+?<td.+?>.+?</td>.+?<td.+?>.+?</td>.+?<td.+?>.+?</td>.+?<td.+?>(.+?)</td>

 or shorter:

<tr>.+?<td.+?><a.+?>(.+?)</a></td>.+?(?:<td.+?</td>.+?){3}<td.+?>(.+?)</td>

 You might need to be more specific to make sure it won't pickup 
unrelated table rows, i.e. add

<a href="bugdb.cgi\?func=bug_detail.+?>

 regards,
 Eugene
