----------------------------------------
Hi,
We are facing a similar issue on my current project. We are using the changes
plugin and Jira, generating announcements.
We want to generate an announcement for every build we do on the continuous
integration server. But we do not want to have a build fail because there is no
issue with a configured status associated with the release. As indeed the
plugin fails not because the release does not exist in Jira, just that no issue
matching the criteria (fixVersion and status) refers to the specific release.
Which makes supporting the SNAPSHOT qualifier weird, as when a new SNAPSHOT
version is created it might not have any solved release immediately.
In order to solve the issue, I am modifying the plugin to support an attribute
"allowEmptyAnnouncement". Based on this attribute, I intend to have the
ReleaseUtils.getLatestRelease either throw the exception, or create an empty
release with no actions associated.
I intend to post the diff once done and tested. However, I did not consider the
other possible usage of this plugin, so the solution will be partial.
