<!-- TODO: --> Notation

Eclipse supports the use of
Notation within many of it's editors such that those comments are automatically parsed into the Eclipse Tasks view.
Does the Oxygen plugin support this? It seems not...
Any plans to add it, it's very useful...

Hi Croaker,
Yes, there are plans for adding this, there is a bug already with this on our bugzilla. Currently it is scheduled to be fixed in the 6.1 release.
Best Regards,
George

Was this ever done? I'm on oXygen 9 and it seems that this does not work... I add a <!-- TODO: --> to the XML file and save it and the tasks do not show up in the Eclipse TASK panel. I would say this is an essential feature and, as you said, was supposed to be in 6.1.
Please advise?

Hello,
Yes, adding XML comments that contain
TODO to the Tasks view works correctly. I added a comment
to an XML file opened in the Oxygen XML Editor panel and when I saved the file the text
This is a comment was added to the Tasks view.
What is your Eclipse build number (you can see it in the Help -> About Eclipse dialog) and what is your Oxygen build number (you can see it in Window -> Preferences -> Oxygen)?
Regards,
Sorin

Oxygen 9.1 build 2007122116
Eclipse Version: 3.3.1.R33x_r20070911-_19UEkpF-B7Uh2hKy75y
Build id: M20070921-1145
I add <!-- TODO with a bunch of text -->
And the Tasks panel refreshes by my todo never shows up.
Also, would:
<!-- TODO: do something to fix this -->
show up in Tasks even with the : at the end of the word TODO?

Hello,
I am sorry, I cannot reproduce the problem. I tried with the Oxygen plugin 9.2 in the build M20070921-1145 of Eclipse 3.1 and any XML file edited with the Oxygen XML Editor adds any XML comment that contains TODO to the Tasks view of Eclipse. Please make sure that you edit the file with the Oxygen XML Editor and that the contents between the <!-- and --> starts with TODO (capital letters).
Does Eclipse log any error to the Error Log view or to the Eclipse log file (the file [your-Eclipse-workspace-folder]/.metadata/.log on disk) when you save an XML file containing a TODO comment that is not added to the Tasks view? What is the icon displayed in the title of the XML editor panel when you add/edit the XML comment and save the XML file?
Regards,
Sorin
