Adding License support causes a plugin do not work (without any reasonable reason) ( and once more...)

[Kinto Soft]

Hi,

My plugin was working without any problem. It adds a menu under the admin_plugins_menu section which requires admin privileges trough the JiraGlobalPermissionCondition class as usual:

  <web-item key="subversion-repositories-link" name="Subversion repositories link on administrators page" section="admin_plugins_menu/source_control" weight="95">
    <label key="subversion.repositories"/>
    <condition class="com.atlassian.jira.plugin.webfragment.conditions.JiraGlobalPermissionCondition">
      <param name="permission">admin</param>
    </condition>
    <link linkId="subversion-repositories">/secure/ViewSubversionRepositories.jspa</link>
  </web-item>

Then added the license module by using the command line (the Plugin SDK version is the latest 4.2.9)...

atlas-create-jira-plugin-module > 11

... and the plug-in cannot be loaded anymore because the exception below:

Caused by: com.atlassian.plugin.web.conditions.ConditionLoadingException: Could not load 'com.atlassian.jira.plugin.webfragment.conditions.JiraGlobalPermissionCondition' in plugin com.kintosoft.jira.subversion-plus

The Spring-Context is present in the pom.xml:

                    </instructions>

Does anyone know why simply by add-ing the license support then a code which was running without any problem, suddenly stops to work?

What is the relationship among the JiraGlobalPrmissionConditon, the UPM/license module and Spring?

Thanks,

Pablo

com.atlassian.upm.license.storage.lib* is not suppoerted anymore

Yeap, I was aware of this documentation. Anyway, an Atlassian's engineer provided me an alternative licensing API which is pretty much easier and stable compared with the official documentation. Since that, add-ing a license has become a trivial task and no more headaches :)
