Description
Yuri Strot
It better be, that should be a negative percentage! LOL. At least according to our user study results. I really like this idea, and note that we have a whole bunch of analysis code and some UI in org.eclipse.mylar.monitor.reports. Are you interested in exploring this? To expand on this idea (I was suggesting something similar in the comments of Bug 121337), the ability to add user task intervals (related to the task but not performed within eclipse) from this view would be useful. This would make the time tracking a very useful tool for those needing to track time per project. Raising priority because we need to consider how to improve timing capture and display as part of the 2.0 planning. I would like to extend this idea even further: it should be possible to get also a list of artifacts where the work was spent on. I had a couple of times the need to see which classes where involved during the work on a task. At the moment I have to open the task and activate the Mylar filter in the explorer task. This is a little bit unhandy especially when you have opend an other task.

So, I created bug 170586 https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=170586 Rob: you're currently the activity guy so over to you. 2 cents from my end... I'm using StdTime for time tracking at the moment (http://www.stdtime.com/) and that app basically does what Yuri describes: have a table with time logs, and write a record with a start time if you start a task, then write the end time when you stop or switch to another task. Maybe a more generic way of having connectors for different time trackers is a solution? For me, if task start/stop events would be recorded in the proper table in StdTime, I already have the whole timesheet, reporting, and billing stuff in place :-) Mylyn has been restructured, and our issue tracking has moved to GitHub [1]. We are closing ~14K Bugzilla issues to give the new team a fresh start. If you feel that this issue is still relevant, please create a new one on GitHub. [1] https://github.com/orgs/eclipse-mylyn |
