Using Mylyn with ColdFusion Development

If you are not familiar with Mylyn or how it can be a benefit to you as a developer, I guarantee you that when you begin using it you will wonder why you didn't use it before now.



  • Mike Henke's Gravatar Great post. One thing to remember is currently all the goodness with CF and Mylyn, Mylyn is only defaulting to a file leave. If Adobe Bolt would have a bridge, we could get even more fine-grain details like down to lines.

  • Dan Skaggs's Gravatar That's good stuff. I've used Mylyn for a while now to connect to Trac to get notifications of new tickets and keep up with what I need to work on but I've never used it this way. I'll definitely be checking this out to see if it works this way (opening files related to the task especially) with Trac. Thanks for the write up!

  • Andrew Scott's Gravatar I should also add that if you close a file when you have the task active, it will remove the file from the association of the task.

  • Mike Henke's Gravatar @Andrew That option can be turned off. Windows -- Preferences -- Tasks -- Context -- "Remove file from context when editor is closed"
