For some weird reason we use XPlanner for tracking our project. We track all of our Stories and Tasks using this tool. Anyways I found out that we can integrate Mylyn with XPlanner and manage all the tasks from Eclipse. It was pretty easy to integrate
I downloaded Mylyn and XPlanner connector from following update sites
Mylyn – http://download.eclipse.org/tools/mylyn/update/e3.4
Xplanner Connector from Mylyn incubator site – http://download.eclipse.org/tools/mylyn/update/incubator/
I selected only Mylyn Connector: XPlanner
Once installed go to Window -> Show View Other -> Task Repositories and create a new Task repository. It will ask for XPlanner server URL (http://xxxxxxx.com:7070), a name for the repository, username and password. Once connected to the repository we can browse stories, tasks and add it to the Task List.
To open Task List click Window -> Show View Other -> Task List.
rightclick -> New -> Query to pull up stories and tasks. We can add, modify tasks from this view.
Mylyn is a very powerful tool and now we can use it with XPlanner seamlessly
