RE: [mylyn-integrators] Lazy Loading Message Details

Hi Andreas,

Lazy loading of this sort was not one of our design goals to date, so the Tasks API is currently coupled to the notion that task data is stored and cached locally.  For example, the tooltips with incoming changes that Mylyn shows retrieve task data from disk.

This is a design decision, not a fundamental limitation, and it is feasible that the Tasks API be extended to support connectors that do not support retrieving task data asynchronously.  Please create a new bug report detailing your use cases and requirements and we can discuss further.  Once you have created the bug report please reply this thread in case others are interested.
