Any ideas...?

Hi Dyre,

I'm afraid I can't be very helpful here. I don't know how to generate an xml report from a JIRA filter anymore. I thought that I would get an XML report by clicking on "XML" in the Issue Navigator box after running the filter. That, however, merely generated an xhtml version of the report and not the version containing the tags expected by the ChangesFileGenerator program. How are you generating an XML report?

One thing to look out for is this: ChangesFileGenerator seems to throw away all issues which are marked as fixed in previous releases. That is, ChangesFileGenerator is only trying to list the changes which JIRA says are specific to 10.4.1.0. I (sort of randomly) sampled 3 issues visible through your "Derby 10.4 Fixed Bugs" filter and noticed that they are all marked with 10.3 as one of the "Fix Version" releases. This could be short-circuiting your run of genchanges.

Another thing to look out for is this: It appears to me that ChangesFileGenerator was custom-built for 10.3. In particular, there is code in makeJiraIssue() which seems specific to 10.3. Myrna may be able to shed more light on this topic.

Hope this helps,
-Rick
