How it Works What you'll find here

A description of how different features the plugin provide work along with descriptions of known limitations. This page was introduced for the v3.1.5 release which featured a new searching capability along with compatibility with the JIRA Data Center v6.3 release

How it Works Installation of the v3.0.0 Release

For version 3.0.0 we removed the need for the Last Comment value to be stored in the database. This greatly reduces the drag on the database as well as shrinking the amount of memory required to reindex the server. To install the v3.0.0 release we recommend you delete whatever field you are currently using to hold the last comment value (associated with the CCC Last Comment plugin) and then uninstall the prior to release v3.0.0 version.

After that just install the new version and create the Field you would like to use (We recommend using the name 'Last Comment' but in reality you could use any valid custom field name - i.e. 'Jane Says' would work just as well as long as the field's 'Type' is set to 'CCC Last Comment' (which now appears nearer the start of the custom field Types list).

Note: While a reindex is recommended after installing any pluging/creating a new custom field in this case it is not required.

How it Works Installation

  • This plugin can be installed via the JIRA plugin manager. No server restart is required. If you had previously installed this plugin in your WEB-INF/lib directory please remove that jar file and restart your JIRA server before attempting to install the new version
  • So...Install the plugin via your JIRA Admin plugin manager
  • Add a new custom field of type "Last Comment", fill out the custom field details, and add it to some screens.

How it Works Configuration Options

The CCC Last Comment Custom Field lets you display the contents of the most recent comment on the issue (the 'last' comment). The amount of content displayed is configurable by your JIRA Administrator for the system. The following options are available:

  • Minimum Length of comment to display
    • If the minimum character limit is exceeded additional characters will be added until the end of the current sentence or until the max value is exceeded. Leave one value blank to display the entire contents of the most recent comment.
  • Maximum Length of comment to display
    • Once the maximum length of the comment to display is met then the contents are returned to the calling process (the sentence is truncated). If this value is left blank then the entire comment will be returned.
  • Browse Issue Renderer
    • The renderer to use when viewing the issue details either alone or from within the Issue Navigator 'Detail' view
  • Issue Navigator Renderer
    • How to render the last comment value when viewing it as a list of issues in the Issue Navigator 'List' view
  • Excel Export Renderer
    • This controls how the data is exported to excel - if you want the HTML tags stripped out then select 'Plain Text' as the renderer
  • Username and Timestamp
    • Selecting this option will have the system display who authored the comment and when it was created (or last modified)
  • Compress Comments
    • Directs the renderer to strip out any blank lines from the comment before displaying it in any of the rendering contexts
