Hello

I would like to use phpBB as a task repository.

I use Eclipse 3.3.
The generic web repository connector is installed.
What do I do next? What parameters do I have to enter?

I searched the newsgroup and Google, but didn't find any useful examples.

Thank you
Sagi

User guide for the web connector is here
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Mylyn_User_Guide#Generic_Web_Reposit ory_Connector

To configure you need to create "task repository" for web connectr.
There you can select phpBB template from the drop down list. After that
you need to create new task query and specify url of the web page you
want to grab tasks from.

It seems like pattern for phpBB got outdated. Here is new pattern that
works for http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewforum.php?f=1

<dt(?: style=".+?")? ?title=".+?"><a
href=".+?viewtopic.php?.+?t=(\d+).+?".+?class="topictitle ">(.+?)</a>.+?</dt>

regards,
Eugene

Thank you for the answer, Eugene!

It's working with some random phpBB Site from the Internet.
Unfortunately, it's not working with my friend's phpBB instance. I will
try to figure out what went wrong.
