 Hi all,

I have working fine the Participant plugin (Create approvers:  http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2012/11/30/a-create-approval-work-item-save-participant/)  but  when I try to attach a file in a workitem (after creation) an alert say "Failed save workitem".

The ccm.log error:

2013-05-22 11:32:08,951 [              WebContainer : 3] ERROR com.ibm.team.process.common                         - com.ibm.team.workitem.common.internal.model.impl.AttachmentImpl incompatible with com.ibm.team.workitem.common.model.IWorkItem
java.lang.ClassCastException: com.ibm.team.workitem.common.internal.model.impl.AttachmentImpl incompatible with com.ibm.team.workitem.common.model.IWorkItem
at ev.createapproval.CreateApproval.run(CreateApproval.java:101)

My first lines of run code:

//Get Data
Object data = operation.getOperationData();
ISaveParameter saveParameter = null;
        
      if (data instanceof ISaveParameter) 
      {
saveParameter = (ISaveParameter) data;
IWorkItem newState = (IWorkItem) saveParameter.getNewState(); //line 101 error
Identifier<IState> newStateId = newState.getState2();
Identifier<IState> oldStateId = null;
IWorkItem oldState = (IWorkItem) saveParameter.getOldState();
String tipo = newState.getWorkItemType().toString();
                         //avoid recursive with loop
                        if (saveParameter.getAdditionalSaveParameters().contains("Loop") || !(tipo.equals("proyecto")))
{
return; 
}
//Not new wi
if (oldState != null )
{
IApprovals HasApprovals = oldState.getApprovals();
List<IApproval> hasAppr = HasApprovals.getContents();

...


Anybody know what is wrong with my participant plugin? 

Thanks

I dont understand why the follow up action start if I dont "Save" the Workitem? I only "Attach a File"...

Attaching a file saves a work item you attach it to.

Marcos, if you look into the code of the participant: http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2012/07/31/rtc-update-parent-duration-estimation-and-effort-participant/ and the other one, where you commented, you can see that you have to make sure your follow up action is actually triggered by a work item save. The code mentioned is:


		if (!(data instanceof ISaveParameter))
			return;

		// Check that this was a save operation on a work item
		ISaveParameter saveParameter= (ISaveParameter) data;
		if (!(saveParameter.getNewState() instanceof IWorkItem))
			return;

The instanceof IWorkItem is actually important, so you don't cast something completely different than a IWorkItem and get the error you see.
