Get Stream from ProjectArea using RTC API 4

Question

Hello I have been trying to get the stream name using projectArea. I have the following parameter: Repository IFileItem WorkItem and its ChangeSets

Is it possible to get it.

Thanks in advance.

Please don't give me a link to the advisor example as I already read it and I couldn't make it as I couldn't figure how to create AdvisableOperation as I just search of the full path of a specific file within a project area.

At this post,it was mentioned the following : https://jazz.net/forum/questions/49910/how-to-get-an-iconfiguration-from-ichangeset

There is a hint that is often useful (but not necessarily always correct), hidden in the ILink which serves as the binding between the IChangeSetHandle (source) and the IWorkItemHandle (target). The IItemReference for the source side has a String extraInfo field which can be retrieved via IItemReference#getExtraInfo(). This string will be of the format IWorkspace= which indicates the originating workspace. You can create a handle to the IWorkspace by using IWorkspace.ITEM_TYPE.createItemHandle(suppliedUUID, null).

public void testWorkspaceConnection(ITeamRepository repository, IWorkItem workItem) throws TeamRepositoryException, IOException{
       List<ILink> changeSetLinks = (List<ILink>)linkCollection.getLinksById("com.ibm.team.filesystem.workitems.change_set");
       List<IReference> changeSetReferences = new ArrayList<IReference>();

         for (ILink link : changeSetLinks) {
            changeSetReferences.add(link.getSourceRef());
         }

         List<IItemHandle> itemHandles = new ArrayList<IItemHandle>();

         for (IReference reference : changeSetReferences) {
             itemHandles.add((IItemHandle)reference.resolve());
         }

         if(itemHandles.isEmpty()){
             return;
         }

         IItemHandle itemHandle = itemHandles.get(itemHandles.size() - 1);
         IChangeSet changeSet = (IChangeSet)repository.itemManager().fetchCompleteItem(itemHandle, 0, monitor);
         List changes = changeSet.changes();         

         IFileItem fileItem = getLogidiagFile(changeSet, repository);
         // TILL HERE THAT WAS AN EXISTING CODE THAT WAS ALREADY THERE AND IT FETCHES THE REQUIRED FILE.
         //NEXT IS WHAT |'VE ADDED TO BE ABLE TO DETERMINE THE FULL PATH
         String uuid=changeSetReferences.get(changeSetReferences.size()-1).getExtraInfo(); //Here I need to get workspace uuid to be abble to create a connection over as the post said
         IWorkspaceHandle workspaceHandle = (IWorkspaceHandle)IWorkspace.ITEM_TYPE.createItemHandle(UUID.valueOf(uuid), null);

         IWorkspaceManager workspaceManager = SCMPlatform.getWorkspaceManager(repository);
         IWorkspaceConnection workspaceConnection = workspaceManager.getWorkspaceConnection(workspaceHandle,monitor);

Exception I get is the following:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: invalid UUID [Workspace=_iibA0GlNEeKd76sMjPDLRA] at com.ibm.team.repository.common.UUID.valueOf(UUID.java:76)

So am I walking on the right course or there are a better one you can guide me through!

You're getting that invalid UUID exception because, as JohnC mentioned in the answer you referenced, the value you're getting back is in the format: IWorkspace=<UUID>. It looks like you're passing this entire string to UUID#valueOf() -- you need to pass only the part following the equal sign.

Note, though, that this is the UUID of the change set's originating workspace, not that of the stream, so your current code will end up giving you a connection to the originating workspace of the change set, which may or may not be suitable for your needs. If you want to find a stream in a project area, I suggest you look into the IWorkspaceManager#findWorkspaces() API.

Million Thanks John.

I have followed your advice and use the stream instead as follows:

Fatla 777 commented Feb 22 '13, 3:00 p.m.

IWorkspaceManager workspaceManager = SCMPlatform.getWorkspaceManager(repository);

IWorkspaceSearchCriteria wsSearchCriteria = WorkspaceSearchCriteria.FACTORY.newInstance();

wsSearchCriteria.setKind(IWorkspaceSearchCriteria.STREAMS);

wsSearchCriteria.setPartialOwnerNameIgnoreCase(projectAreaName);

List <IWorkspaceHandle> workspaceHandles = workspaceManager.findWorkspaces(wsSearchCriteria, Integer.MAX_VALUE, Application.getMonitor());　

IWorkspaceConnection workspaceConnection = workspaceManager.getWorkspaceConnection(workspaceHandles.get(0),Application.getMonitor());

I would appreciate if you can assist me into the rest of my concern:
