I am using JazzPlainJavaClient to make a query program. I has met a
problem in my coding: I want to query work items with the condition
of severity. This is My code:

1.String severity_normal = "severity.literal.l3";

2.Identifier sIdentifier = Identifier.create (classType,
severity_normal);

3.IQueryableAttribute severityAttribute = findAttribute (projectArea,
auditableClient, IWorkItem.SEVERITY_PROPERTY, null);

4.AttributeExpression severityExpression = new AttributeExpression
(severityAttribute, AttributeOperation.EQUALS, sIdentifier);

Is it a correct way to create AttributeExpression of severity? And
what value should be set to the param "classType" in the
row #2

Yes, this looks correct. I think passing in the string instead of the
identifier is possible, too. The classType argument for the Identifier
would be ISeverity.class in your example above.

My problem has benn resolved. Thank you for your reply. Now two new puzzles appears.
(1) When a IWorkItem instance is got,how to get its "phase found" and "find in" property(IWorkItem.FOUND_IN_PROPERTY)? I can not find any method to get them.
(2) About the "phase found". I want to create AttributeExpression for it; but I can not find its
PROPERTY value defined(like PROPERTY value defined as IWorkItem.FOUND_IN_PROPERTY) in class IWorkItem .Does it have a alias or is there any other way to get it?
