Build ID: M20070212-1330 Steps To Reproduce: More information: Comment from Mik Kersten regarding request for another plugin be able to add web pages to task context: "You can do this already, because the org.eclipse.mylar.web plug-in monitors interaction with web resources. However, this plug-in is currently only distributed in dev builds, so you would either need to re-package it, or request that it get distributed with the release" Reference link: http://developer.atlassian.com/jira/browse/TIMTAM-2
Bob: could you describe how you would use this plug-in? On its own it does not provide much useful functionality to users, which is why it is not in a release. It is targeted at integrators wanting to reuse context for web pages. So if it goes into a release I wonder if we should pull the UI stuff out, or whether it would be better to keep it out of the release and have integrators distribute it themselves.
Mik, it could be useful if Mylar would provide some kind of placeholder (say in the Project Explorer) that would show those managed web links. Then anything opened trough hyperlinks from other editors or directly in the web browser would be shown there.
(In reply to comment #1) Mik, my apologies for not being clear. I will try to answer your request, but I not familiar with Mylar internals or the capability that the web plugin provides to know exactly what I am asking for! TIMTAM implements a MultiPageEditorPart with a AbstractTextEditor and a browser control that presents a wiki page (source and rendered). The wiki page comes from a remote server. Pages that are opened while a task is active need to be associated to the Mylar context. Also, links that are followed in the browser control may also need to be added to the context.
Done. However, note that since the UI was only prototype quality this plug-in is now almost all framework only. So you might need to do something like writing your own content provider, see that plugin.xml for an example. Please post questions here or create a new bug for any additional things that you would like to see added.
