3 requests around plugin development
1/ create a plugin-dev forum.
-
It would naturally host technical, as well as "how do I write a plugin"
questions, that currently "pollute" the
- openapi
- plugin
but also the
- eap
- community
forums.
2/ open the tracker to plugins
-
1 plugin -> 1 tracker area.
If you require developers to register a unique root path
ex:
org.plugins.mylittleplugin.*
, then you could also enable the next request :
3/ cool handling of plugin caused stacktraces
-
By examining the stack trace, IDEA could find out it was caused by a plugin.
Using the list of registered plugin root paths, it could be redirected
to the proper tracker,
after telling the user it was caused by a plugin.

1. the plugin-dev forum is only OpenAPI. Then "plugin" forum is plugin
request/support forum, i guess.
2. Yes, it will be very nice. I already say about it and ask for not profit
JIRA.
3. +1, but it not realy need.
Thanks!

+1 for #3, it would be nice to keep all plugins under a common namespace.
But as you say, its not really needed. However, if plugins could register
some form of "ErrorHandlerInfo" interface which provides the Stack Trace
Handler info like:
- Name of plugin
- Base package for plugin ( any exception thrown starting with this
package would use the other information for bug submission.
- Contact email for plugin maintainer
- Bug Submission email address ( for receiving the stack trace )
- URL of Plugin Home page
