Hyperlinks between Tasks and Java code [message #52347]

Hi,

My goal is to manage violations reported by static analysis tools as tasks
with the same convenient features such as when I click on a task, the Java
objects referenced are automatically opened and highlighted

I'm trying to configure MyLyn so that when I open a task, all references
to Java code make an hyperlink to Java files, class or methods in my
WorkingSet, but I didn't succeed.

At the beginning, I thought that it was a specific feature of the
connector and I tried Local tasks, JIRA tasks, IssueZilla through the
generic Web Repository connector without success.

Have you any idea of the issue?

Thanks for your help

The hyperlink detector is currently specific to Java stack traces. It will
only recognize Java elements that are formatted as such. Take a look at
these bugs for a discussion and planned enhancements:

239087: [patch][wikitext] implement a hyperlink detector in the form
of "<prefix> <qulified name>"
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=239087

237974: [wikitext] implement a hyperlink detector specifically designed for
Java. e.g. detecting
org.eclipse.mylyn.internal.java.tasks.JavaClassHyperlinkDete ctor
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=237974

Feel free to chime in on the discussion with your requirements.
