How to get ITeamRepository and IWorkItemClient (in RTC follow-up action)?
![]()
Hello everybody!
I'm trying to extend an RTC with follow-up action plug-in. It works well but untill I try to get workitem attributes. How to do it, I found a lot of excellent articles including this one: http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2013/01/02/working-with-work-item-attributes/ But I stumble at the step when I need get ITeamRepository and IWorkItemClient objects. For example, I used such code: IProcessArea procarea = operation.getProcessArea(); ITeamRepository teamRepository1 = (ITeamRepository) procarea.getOrigin(); IWorkItemClient workItemClient1 = (IWorkItemClient) teamRepository1.getClientLibrary(IWorkItemClient.class); and another one: IProjectAreaHandle projhndl = newState.getProjectArea(); ITeamRepository teamRepository2 = (ITeamRepository) projhndl.getOrigin(); IWorkItemClient workItemClient2 = (IWorkItemClient) teamRepository2.getClientLibrary(IWorkItemClient.class); But every time, I have null for the teamRepository object! Can somebody say what is wrong? As far as I understand, follow-up action is called by RTC under a user which is already connected to the repository. Can I get an existing reference to this data from within RTC extention plug-in? Thank you very much in advance for any advices! |
Accepted answer
![]()
because your code is a subclass of abstractService you have access to methods to load libraries
from another plugin
fWorkItemServer = getService(IWorkItemServer.class);
fAuditableCommon = getService(IAuditableCommon.class);
fcontributorService = getService(IContributorService.class);
fProcessServerService = getService(IProcessServerService.class);
fQueryService = getService(IQueryService.class);
fItemService = getService(IRepositoryItemService.class);
note that you must declare the need to access these other services in your plugin.xml
<extensionService
componentId="com.sd.tools.workitem.createapproval.participant.component"
implementationClass="com.sd.tools.CreateApprovalParticipant">
<prerequisites>
<requiredService interface="com.ibm.team.repository.common.service.IContributorService"/>
<requiredService interface="com.ibm.team.workitem.common.IAuditableCommon"/>
<requiredService interface="com.ibm.team.process.service.IProcessServerService"/>
<requiredService interface="com.ibm.team.workitem.service.IWorkItemServer"/>
<requiredService interface="com.ibm.team.repository.common.service.IQueryService"/>
<requiredService interface="com.ibm.team.repository.service.IRepositoryItemService"/>
</prerequisites>
</extensionService>
