1. Minor Java API Release
This release just adds a new event type to the Java API. The changes are backwards-compatible.
JIRA Version | New API Version | Structure Plugin Version |
|---|---|---|
6.3 – 6.4.x | 8.8.0 | 2.11.0.jira6 |
| 7.0 | 8.8.0 | 2.11.0.jira7 |
See Structure API Versions for full version information and downloads.
2. Compatible Changes in the Java API
2.1. Added UserCompat class
In order to have a single source code for JIRA 6 and JIRA 7 we had to add UserCompat class that implements both User and ApplicationUser.
API clients do not have to do anything about this, however, you may find it useful if you also need to compile your plugin against otherwise incompatible JIRA 7 and JIRA 6 API.
Note, however, that while it allows to have a single version of source code for conflicting API versions, it requires separate compilation with JIRA 7 and JIRA 6 API, resulting in two versions of a plugin.
2.2. Removed com.atlassian.usercompatibility dependency
The implicit dependency on com.atlassian.usercompatibility:usercompatibility-jira has been removed. This should not affect other plugins.
2.3. Additional utilities
More functions have been added to JiraFunc and StructureUtil classes.
