A post to alert you all to a new minor release of Jira Server and Jira Service Desk Server.
Key things to keep in mind as a plugin developer
Stated in the Preparing for Jira 7.8 development guide is this suggestion for plugin developers to consider.
Quick search
What might be useful for plugin developers is monitoring how your users are searching and limiting the number of concurrent searches with regards to Quick search.The quick search doesn’t affect performance in a significant way unless many users start searching at the same time. If you notice any slowdown, start monitoring the searches to find a limit that works best for your instance.
To monitor searching in real-time, use the quicksearch.concurrent.search metric in JMX. For more info on how to set up JMX, see Live monitoring with JMX.
Other considerations:
- Oracle JDBC driver is no longer bundled with JIRA
- Dutch language is now supported.
