Hi Newton,

To automatically change the status of a task you need to do this with the post-commit scripts of your version control.

For subversion & mantis checkout:

It should be the same process for all other version control systems.

Many thanks ! It did work, the only thing i’d improve is to change to task status in the same screen when commiting, not before.

Hello newton,

Do this you need to go in preferences of eclipse (Window > Prefrences).

In the menu “Task” > “Team” you can configure the commit template. Check also “Automatically create and manage with task context”.

Make sure that before you commit the task is activated in mylyn.

Keep me in touch if it doesn’t work.

grtz

Mylyn does not support Mantis be default, so even if you install the mylyn module in eclipse you won’t be able to connect to mantis.

And you also need to install a “SOAP” interface (mantisconnect) in mantis to be able to connect from the outside.

You’ll find all the information needed on this page: http://mylyn-mantis.wiki.sourceforge.net/

And the default messages in the commit box of your version control can be changed in the Preferences >> Tasks >> Team :
“fixed issue #178: Change user name to full name”
would be
“${task.resolution} issue ${connector.task.prefix}${task.key}: ${task.description}”.
