Comment 4 Remy Suen CLA 2010-09-13 11:13:27 EDT 
Personally, I have problems just getting the view up due to compiler errors.
Comment 5 Remy Suen CLA 2010-09-23 12:38:34 EDT 
I tried installing Mylyn on I20100923-1125 from the Helios update site and the task editor won't even come up. I don't know how you all are getting it up. :O
Comment 6 Lars Vogel CLA 2010-09-24 05:54:22 EDT 
@Remy: Which platform? Windows7 installs fine.

> @Remy: Which platform? Windows7 installs fine.

I am on Windows XP. Technically speaking, the editor comes up, it's just blank and the tab doesn't even have any text in it (due to its early demise in the creation cycle).
Comment 8 Lars Vogel CLA 2010-09-24 06:14:25 EDT 
You have then a even better usecase for testing the the backward compatibility layer. ;-)

Well, I know why it doesn't come up for me (because of the compiler errors mentioned in comment 4), I don't know what _you_ guys are doing though. :O
Comment 10 Remy Suen CLA 2010-09-27 08:08:06 EDT 
Other people also seem to have problems bringing up the editor. See bug 321215 and bug 321278.
Comment 11 Lars Vogel CLA 2010-12-10 04:27:20 EST 
@Remy: Are you still having problem open the editor? Works fine for me in the current M3 on Windows7.

I'm pretty sure the view opens now but don't recall any problems with the 'Description' text field. I'll check again though.
Comment 13 Lars Vogel CLA 2010-12-10 06:12:57 EST 
I'm using Mylyn right now in e4 M3. Everything works fine for me. I think this bug can be closed if you don't find anything.
Comment 14 Lars Vogel CLA 2010-12-10 06:28:09 EST 
Found one issue. The "Properties" entry is missing in e4. See screenshots.

Also submitting changes via Mylyn to Eclipse bugs does not work. Please test for example for this bug. Screenshot attached.

I seem to see the 'Properties' menu item on I20101209-0255.
Comment 20 Steffen Pingel CLA 2010-12-10 16:45:37 EST 
Which version of Mylyn are you using? This looks like a duplicate of bug 321215 which is fixed in weekly builds.
Comment 21 Lars Vogel CLA 2010-12-10 16:50:05 EST 
I use Helios and the corresponding update site for Mylyn.
Comment 22 Steffen Pingel CLA 2010-12-10 17:15:53 EST 
For e4 you'll need to use the latest Indigo or Mylyn weekly build: http://eclipse.org/mylyn/downloads/.
Comment 23 Lars Vogel CLA 2010-12-11 14:02:47 EST 
@Steffen, sorry I mixed two bugs up. For course for e4 I'm using Indigo. Once e4 m4 is out, I give it another try.
Comment 24 Lars Vogel CLA 2010-12-20 06:28:20 EST 
Looking good in M4a. Closing.
