Hi,

To improve the migration importation phase from mantis I made some modifications to the importer MantisImportBean reusing some modifications that was already made in another issue and some modifications that was existing for bugzilla importer.

I also add the same search bugzilla portlet as for mantis.

Please find attached a zip file with the following new file :

• mantis.vm
• mantissearch.jsp
• corner_mantisfinder.gif
• mantisfinder.gif
• mantis*.properties (for i18n)

And one file that was patched :

• system-portlets-plugin.xml

Those files are placed in the same directory as in my development installation, it provides a fast search portlet to find an issue given its mantis id.

There is also the file : MantisImportBean.java

To add this file, I use the http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/JIRA+Standalone+quick+source+modifications

The importer was modified to do the following :

• create specific custom fields : internal priority and reproducibility. Those fields exist in mantis but they wasn't imported in JIRA with the original importer.
• the importer could now made incremental import
• create links type : duplicate, related to, child of
• recreate Links between issue (only if the two issues exist. In case of partial import, the link will be created when all issues are present)
• import watchers

I will link to the issue that helps me to modify the importer.

I hope it could be helpful if it is integrated in the core.

Regards,
