[mylar-dev] mylar 0.4.9 is now available

["Mik Kersten" <beatmik@xxxxxxx>]

Mylar 0.4.9 is now available: http://eclipse.org/mylar/dl.php  (note the changes in feature packaging)

• This release supports Eclipse 3.2M5 (M4 is no longer supported) and Bugzilla 2.20.1 (eclipse.org migrated yesterday).
• Note that changing versions of Eclipse causes repository credentials to get cleared (they're stored in the Platform key ring), so reset passwords in the Task Repositories view if updating Eclipse.
• 3.2M5: Custom Mylar editor is gone (see below), so before restarting deactivate the current task or close all active editors, and run the New -> Mylar -> Preference Configuration wizard (it should pop up automatically)
• 3.2M5: If auto folding doesn't work reset the folding provider (see Active Folding).

Community Contributions

Robert Elves provided patches that resolved 17 reports. The JIRA support was made possible by Brock Janiczak's help and his JIRA Core Services feature. Wesley Coelho provided initial integration patches and 10 very valuable JIRA test cases, and Eugene Kuleshov helped with debugging. Wang Bin provided patches for JUnit integration and code quality. Tom Eicher and Daniel Megert made tighter editor integration possible with new SDK content assist and folding APIs.

New & Noteworthy (http://eclipse.org/mylar/doc/new.php)

JIRA integration (Experimental)

JIRA tasks and queries are now supported in the task list.  Add a new JIRA repository via the Task Repositories view, then right-click in the task list to Add a New Repository Query, and select from one of your existing JIRA filters.  Note that on very large repositories (e.g. Codehaus the very first query that's run on a newly added repository will be slow). Also note that the task list now provides icon overlays indicating repository task type/severity, and text overlays for queries indicating the repository.

 

Task data import	Task date can now be imported from an existing .mylar directory, or from a backup zip file created by the Mylar export wizard.

 

Active task indication (3.2 only)	The currently active task is indicated with a hyperlink below the toolbar that can be used to bring the task into focus (Eclipse 3.2 only).

 

Notification popups (3.2 only)	Task reminders no longer appear in a separate dialog windows.  When a task becomes overdue, a notification 'toaster' pops up that can be used to bring the task up.  The notification will not come up again, since the overdue task will be colored red and always visible in the task list until the reminder is reset.

 

No more custom Java Editor (3.2 only)	The custom Mylar Java editor is gone, and the automatic folding and content assist integration will now work with any Java editor, e.g. AJDT's, thanks to new Eclipse APIs.
