Hi all,

Edit: In the version 0.5.2, when the user clicks on the widget, an error occurs and the Summary Popup is not displayed. This bug appears on Windows and MacOS environments. So I released a patched version 0.5.3 the day after. Sorry for the inconvenience

Quick fix : 0.5.1

Hi all,

I uploaded a quick release 0.5.1 with the following fixes :
  • Regression : When the server url is not set (or set to a dummy url), the plugin should not try to connect.
  • Browser Panel : OneTouch Expandable should be accessible

This release should be available today (after Jetbrains's review).

Sorry for the inconvenience.

jenkins plugin 0.5.0 is out

I am please to announce new release of the jenkins plugin for Jetbrains products. Here below the changelog :

New features :
  • Job Search : Type CTRL + F to display it and use F3 (SHIFT + F3 ) to search forward (backward). The search is cyclic. It means when the last occurrence is reached, the next search will start from the beginning (or the end, depending the search movement)
  • Widget on the status bar : A blue icon will be displayed. It means all builds of the selected view are "good". If a build (or more) is broken then a red icon will be displayed withe number of broken builds. Moreover, a balloon will be displayed whenever there is broken build in the last Rss Entries.
  • RSS UI is more readable, based on the Event Log panel of Intellij 11.
Misc :
  • Improve loading performance by using Swing Thread (Thanks IntelliJ that warn you whenever you do not run UI component in the EDT).
  • Connection issue when Job and Rss autorefresh threads are both enabled
  • Configuration Panel: File input fields have now a validator. So when the file does not exist, then an error message is displayed
  • Misspelling: Rename 'Password' to 'Password file' in the Configuration Panel: 
After submitting the plugin to Jetbrains, I saw a UI regression in the SplitPane. The OneTouchExpendable Button is missing. I will fix it in a near future.

About the upcoming features, I am thinking about a job filter based on the status.

Thanks for your support (Marcin, thanks for the widget suggestion).

jenkins-control-plugin 0.4.3 released

This version only includes bug fixes :
- Rss Swing Layout issue
- incompatibility with PhpStorm

Friday, December 2, 2011

Jenkins plugin 0.4.2 is out

Main changes are :
  • Bug fixed 
  • JetBrains Products Support (Thanks Baas - Author of TabSwitch Plugin - for the tips)
0.3.3 for older version is available too.

In the near future, I will focus on the IDEA 10 branch. Java 6 offers new Swing Desktop features I would like to use.

So the JDK 15 branch will be no longer maintained (except for critical bug).

I am waiting for your feedbacks ;)
