[mylyn-integrators] Problems with implementing offline support

[Dennis Rietmann <dennis.rietmann@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone,

I have a problem with implementing offline editing in my connector. If I 
mark the repository as "disconnected" and then open a task from the task 
list the background synchronization will be launched and getTaskData 
gets called on my TaskDataHandler (via the  
RepositorySynchronizationManager->SynchronizeTaskJob.synchronizeTask). 
getTaskData will try to get the task from the repository which of course 
fails when working offline.
I had a look at the Trac connector's TaskDataHandler and it seems to do 
the same, there is no special check whether the repository is in 
disconnected mode or not. I think I missed something, because 
getTaskData shouldn't be called at all by the framework,  but I couldn't 
figure out what. Does anyone have a suggestion? I already read the 
section in the Integrators wiki, this seems to be fine.

thanks for any help,
Dennis
