Band to your explorer task bar for quick access to Mantis bug tracking system

Sample Image - mantisband.jpg

Introduction

This code provides easy access to Mantis bug tracking issues. As program manager, I often need to find an issue in Mantis by issue number.

Background

This application is programmed as explorer desktop band.

Installation

  1. Save MantisIssues.dll to local disk.
  2. Run "regsvr32.exe MantisIssues.dll".
  3. Select Toolbar\MantisIssues from task bar context menu.
  4. After this, you will see "Mantis settings..." in your task bar.
  5. If you run Mantis settings from local menu, you can set your Mantis URL, for example, "http://mymantis/".
  6. And now, you can enter the issue number and press Enter key.

Using the Code

This code was made by using ATL DeskBand Wizard (thanks to Erik Thompson, http://www.codeproject.com/kb/atl/rbdeskband.aspx).
