Component setup

The bug tracker plugin can be an independent component that you write using your preferred IDE.

Configure a bug tracker plugin with the following dependencies:

  • Plugin must implement a public API defined and distributed in fortify-public-<version>.jar (required)

  • Apache Commons Logging (optional)
  • Apache Commons Lang (optional)

You can use your preferred build system to build your distributable.

If a plugin has any dependencies on JavaEE packages, the plugin developer must bundle the necessary JavaEE JAR files into the plugin's own library path, and must not rely on these packages being available from the Java™ Runtime Environment. The JavaEE modules were deprecated with Java 9. Such packages include JAXB API and implementation, javax.activation, javax.annotation, javax.transaction, javax.xml.ws, and CORBA-related packages.
