Basic JIRA Integration
« on: July 15, 2010, 03:27:01 PM »
Hi folks,

The idea is that I could create a toolbar that would list Jira tickets... probably for now you either have to set a filter id or it'll just list whatever open tickets it finds in a specified project.
Jira has a SOAP interface that's pretty simple to use from python and I have a little command line tool that will execute and display the results of queries. I'm not sure how to bridge the gap though. Since I don't think Slick-C has any sort of network commands let alone any SOAP type interfaces I'm left thinking I'll have to make use of either an external application such as my python script, or write something in c/c++ that can be used my a slick-c module. Which begs the question: Is that possible?
Aside from that I haven't used forms or created any toolbars so I'm looking for tips on that as well. I'd like to store links to the issues so that I can easily get to the ticket in the browser.

Any pointers would be appreciated!

Cheers!

Clark

On Windows, you can extend SlickEdit with a DLL. There's a DLL example in samples\simple\.

Why is that only available on Windows?
