How to generate connector for new version of Targetprocess

mylyn-connector's Issues

Cannot connect

using targetprocess authentication. This was working and have multiple issues loading, it now gives me a 401 unathorized. I can still log in via browser, and have tried resetting my password, but it tells me it cannot connect to target process. This is most likely a change on the server side, as this was working before, and I have not updated the pluging in Eclipse.

As an additional note, the Password box displays the text in the clear, it should show ******* when typing.

Attachment upload does not work

When trying to submit a comment to a story axis2 error is thrown.

I open a story from the task list by double clicking. Then I type some text in the comment box and get a popop that shows an error.

401 Error is still present with new 3.14.5 release

Screenshots are in #19 , but I'm still seeing the same error, updated from the console, etc.

Add branding to show plugin in the list of installed features

Cannot install w/ Latest Eclipse.

Downloaded Eclipse IDE 2019-06 (When I went to the Luna page, it said it was a previous release, then re-directed me to the eclipse.org/downloads page which has 2019-06.

The plugin seems to install properly, but when I click on add task repository, target process is not shown as an available option.
