How can I get "PluginDisableEvent" in JIRA?

[Dheeraj Kumar Aggarwal]

Hi All,

I was trying to bind PluginDisableEvent or PluginUninstalledEvent in JIRA but I got class not found exception.

here is the link to package contaning these classes http://docs.atlassian.com/atlassian-plugins-core/2.8.0/atlassian-plugins-core/apidocs/com/atlassian/plugin/event/events/package-summary.html

I want to perform some task, when my plugin is uninstalled.

Hi All,

After searching JIRA documentation, I found these articles helpful:

• https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/JIRA+Plugin+Lifecycle
• https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/Plugin+Tutorial+-+Writing+JIRA+event+listeners+with+the+atlassian-event+library

The below is an excerpt from the above documentation:

Note: When disabling or uninstalling a plugin, the <tt>PluginDisabledEvent</tt> corresponding to that plugin is not intended to be caught by the plugin itself. It is provided primarily for JIRA itself and other plugins that may depend on the plugin.

This means, I cannot capture PluginDisabledEvent/PluginUninstalledEvent within the plugin itself :(
