Mylyn-Mantis connector 3.9.0 released

The major focus of this release is compatibility with the just-released Eclipse Juno , and implicitly Mylyn 3.8 .

Visual refresh

The query page has been streamlined to have a look which is more consistent with the other Mylyn connectors by using a horizontal layout which scales easier to large numbers of projects or filters.

The people selector fields have been changed from drop-downs to auto-complete fields . This has two major benefits:

  1. When scrolling the editor using the mouse wheel the focus is no longer stolen by the drop-downs
  2. With Mylyn 3.7 or newer, real names are displayed when auto-completing

Other improvements

The support for tags and time tracking has been improved . Also the connector is easier to run in non-OSGi environments.
