The Bugzilla connector code base has grown and evolved over the years. To leverage framework enhancements and make the code easier to maintain the Bugzilla core code needs to be refactored and extended (see subtasks). Since this is likely to break outstanding contributions merging these should be considered prior to the refactoring.
Frank, can you provide a list of oustanding patches that are likely to break if we change BugzillaClient and related classes?
Steffen, I think we can start after we have reviewed the following two bugs 329637 do not check for stale tasks if synchronizing query on Bugzilla 3.4 or later 356986 [patch] auto detect XML-RPC (was: IllegalArgumentException when enabling XML-RPC) http://review.mylyn.org/#change,27 maybe we should keep this with 354023 create method to get more information from the Bugzilla Webservice to support an Bugzilla Client with HTML and XMLRPC functions. These bugs have already stale patches: 208839 prompt for Bugzilla authentication credentials as needed 269803 improve error message in case of missing Bugzilla_login cookie 341829 custom transitions should not require a workflow description file 342212 cookies are not deleted when running tests 360276 remove work-arounds for legacy Bugzilla versions (patch but we do not need this) bugs without patches 227015 [refactor] move retry handling out of BugzillaConnector to BugzillaClient 255132 [refactor] BugzillaClient.getTaskData() 288868 add test for encoding in repository config (eclipse.org) 298918 speed up Bugzilla tests 329697 reevaluate logout "hack" 335254 [api] add o.e.m.commons.http bundle based on HttpClient 4.1 335533 Can not submit tasks because all emails are missing @domain
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
