How to create queries that filter on link comments


Mark Cocker (4688) | asked Jun 03 '09, 6:27 a.m.
I am trying to create a query that filters on work item link comments.
For example I want to return all work items that have a related artifact
whos comment starts with "Customer requirement".

Using the RTC 1.0.1.1 client there doesn't seem to be a search attribute
for links. I tried using the "Full text" attribute which the
documentation says "Use this to create a query that searches *all
fields* of work items for a matching text string." but unfortunately
this seems to exclude link comments.

Is there an existing way to search on link comments or should I create a
feature request?

Regards,
Mark.

Link comments are currently not exposed in the query editor. Please create
an enhancement request, I agree that this would be a useful addition.

Patrick,

Thanks. I follwed the "submit a bug or enhancement request" link from
https://jazz.net/projects/rational-team-concert/ and created a new
"Ehancement" item but when I tried to save it said I did not have the
correct license.

Am I doing something wrong?

TITLE: Link Comment to be exposed as a queryable attribute in the query
editor

DESCRIPTION: I would like to create a query that filters on work item
link comments. For example I created "related artifact" link with
comment "Customer requirement FITSnnnn" from work items to a customer
requirements database and I would now like to create a query that shows
all work items that have a link comment starting with "Customer
requirement". This would be useful in collating a list of all customer
items addressed at the end of a release cycle.

Using the RTC 1.0.1.1 client there doesn't seem to be a search attribute
for links and the "Full text" attribute does not work with Link Comments.

No, there seems to be an issue with the license setup on jazz.net. Every
registered user should be able to create work items there.

I have created

for your request.
