Re: [mylyn-integrators] How to get TaskData?

[Robert Elves <rob.elves@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, this is a problem. Although the TaskDataManager lies in the 
tasks.core package, it is initialized and its instance held by the 
tasks.ui.TasksUiPlugin.  Same goes for the tasklist itself. If you could 
create a new bug report and prefix the summary with "[api]" we can 
discuss options there. In the mean time you'll need to add a dependency 
on tasks.ui to get access to these facilities.
