Description Mauro Molinari

2008-03-03 05:19:43 EST

Build ID: M20080221-1800

As suggested by Eugene Kuleshov in Mylyn newsgroup, I'm requesting an enhancement for providing a JTrac (http://jtrac.info) template for Mylyn Web Connector.

Unfortunately, in fact, the author of JTrac was not able to provide a connector for Mylyn, as written in JTrac forums:
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1675418&forum_id=552477

So, at least a template for the generic web connector would be useful.

Unfortunately, there's no public installation available for testing, although JTrac installation should be an easy task.

Thank you.

jtrac query form

This is what I see for JTrac query form and it is quite weird actually. I think I can still configure web connector for such generic stuff, but it will have to be changed on every jtrac instance. Also, when such form is submitted the result page always have url like this

http://localhost:8088/jtrac/app/?wicket:bookmarkablePage=%3Ainfo.jtrac.wicket.ItemListPage

So you can't bookmark it and copying such url from browser into the web connector configuration is not going to work, which makes it very hard to the end users to configure web connector for JTrac.

All in all I would suggest to to request JTrac developers provide stable urls for JTrac queries, then it will be no brainer to use web connector with JTrac.

Just to let you know that some progress has been done in this area:
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1675418&forum_id=552477
The URL now should be usable with the Generic Web Connector.
A user also posted some instructions on how to set up the generic web connector, but there still are some issues, I read...
