On Custom Field (GenericTextCFType) dependencies

[Akira Tsuchiya]

I created a Custom Filed class extending GenericTextCFType.

And atlassian-plugin.xml looks as below.

<customfiled-type key="aaa" class="***.TestCustomField">
<resource type="velocity" name="edit" location="templates/edit.vm"/>
</customfiled-type>

When it is installed, JIRA displays the warning as below.

[This plugin has one or more modules with missing dependencies.]

And the "aaa" module is disabled.

What dependencies are needed?

It cannot find your class or possibly .vm that the xml refers to, or possibly something that you've relied on in the plugin compilation that isn't in the Jira structure. Check their locations in your plugin directory structure.

To track it down:

Are there any warnings when you compiled the plugin?

Read the log for Jira startup - you should expect to find an error telling you what it cannot find!
