Please I need to know how to get value of a custom attribute of type Contributor list to a work item programmatically (via the Java Plain client API).
I am able to do it if the custom attribute is of type Small String: But I need to know how to do so if the custom attribute is of type Contributor list.. Thank you so much in advance |

you will need to use the ContributorManager object on the repository connection to be able to get the details from the contributor objects in the list

Funny, I just realized I have no example for the server, where I resolve the contributor handle to a contributor. Hang in there, I am trying to create one.

Nilesh, you can find example code here: http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2012/11/30/a-create-approval-work-item-save-participant/ there are other posts on that blog with examples you might be interested in.
Please be aware of http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2012/12/14/do-not-modify-the-triggering-element-in-an-operationadvisor/ should you try to modify your work item in the advisor. Comments ![]() FORUM ADMINISTRATOR / FORUM MODERATOR / JAZZ DEVELOPER
IContributorHandle creator = resolved.getOwner(); fRepositoryItemService=getService(IRepositoryItemService.class);You need to add the IRepositoryItemService to the prerequisites <prerequisites> <requiredservice interface="com.ibm.team.workitem.service.IWorkItemServer"/> <requiredservice interface="com.ibm.team.workitem.common.IWorkItemCommon"/> <requiredservice interface="com.ibm.team.repository.service.IRepositoryItemService"/> </prerequisites> This assumes you try to write an advisor for the server. On the client the API is different and you can find code in my blog for that. It also resolves the IContributorHandle. |
