RE: [mylyn-integrators] Question about integrating mylyn

Hi Praveen,

 

1)      We don’t have an extension point for this, so you would either need to contribute that, or add a listener that would prevent the action from happening (e.g., by listening to the pre-activation event).  Either way, this will be a sensitive enough part of the code that I highly recommend you contribute a test case to Mylyn which exercises the behavior that you’re depending on, since it will likely work outside of what we intended with the API.

2)      There are no restrictions in the sorts of views that you can create overtop of the TaskList. You can use the TaskListView class for inspiration.  However, if you’re doing this on Mylyn 3.0, note that you are using internals and will want to comment on and vote for the following bug:

239994: [api] provide access to task list
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=239994

 

In terms of getting these changes into Mylyn 3.1, the best way to do so is by providing contributions and test cases for your particular requirements.

 

Cheers,

 

Mik

Subject: [mylyn-integrators] Question about integrating mylyn

 

Hi folks,

I am new to Mylyn. We are trying to develop a dashboard plugin. I have a couple of questions before I can leverage Mylyn functionalities.

1. Can the "activating the task" and "attaching context to a task"  be restricted on tasks from a specific repository type.

2. Right now we have a mylyn connector for our bug repository. When we query the repository, we see the bug id and headline for each result. I would like to have the results also in another new view. Also it would be good if I can specify what columns I need in the new view.


Currently, we are using Mylyn 2.3. Are the above requirements possible with that version or with 3.0

Thanks,
Praveen
