Re: [mylyn-integrators] Where/when is a task saved locally?

[Hallvard Ystad <hallvard.ystad@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi again

Thanks for the tip, but peeking into those methods reveals only the following:
1) None of the methods have errors or exceptions (I didn't override them in the first place)
2) Even TaskDataModel.save doesn't cause any errors, since there is no "Error saving task" in the log output (doSave() prints so if model.save() throws a CoreException).

As I synchronize with the server, the TaskList populates OK. But db-clicking a task opens a TaskEditorPage where the remote tracker part is blank and it is suggested that I resynchronize. I see in my log files that the tasks I click are retrieved from the server w/o any problem. If I understand correctly, mylyn will check for a local zip file also in these cases. At least the stack trace suggests that's what's missing.

There is a stack trace for this behaviour here: https://bitbucket.org/pplupo/bitbucket-mylyn-connector/issue/44/

I have chmodded to 777 the enitre .metadata/.mylyn folder, but to no avail.

For the moment I am clueless. Should I look into TaskDataManager.saveWorkingCopy()? I prefer to believe the error is on my side, but can't figure out where I send null objects or call methods erroneously...

Any suggestion is welcome. Thanks,
HY

Hi,

Saving is handled by the framework and you shouldn't need to hook into it. Maybe your problem is caused by overriding doSubmit or doSave in TaskEditorPage, without calling super? Or perhaps an exception is preventing the save from happening. Normally, when submitting a task, doSubmit calls doSave which calls TaskDataModel.save, which writes the zip file.

HTH,
Sam

Hi list

Trying to construct a custom TaskEditorPage, I get a CoreException because my tasks aren't stored locally in the «offline» folder. When I create a task and save it, the zip-file is in the local-local folder, but when I submit the task to my tracker, there is no zip file in the .mylyn/tasks/tracker/offline/ folder. In the data folder, there is one folder for each issue, but no zip files.

I believe this must be due to a faulty connector. The TaskDataModel class has a save method - but where do I hook into it? The integrator reference page on eclipse.org mentions four things to do to add offline support to a connector, but as far as I can tell, all four of them are implemented in my connector, and none of them deals with saving locally.

Observing code in the Bugzilla and Trac connectors didn't prove useful. Or (probably) I missed something. So since this connector doesn't save tasks locally (although the folders are created), where should I look? Where should it have happened?

Thanks,
HY
