Exception on retrieving service
Hi, I've a problem during execution of a server side plugin. I've implemented an operation Advisor for delivery operation.
I'm trying to run it using remote server. When I try to run it I've this exception: The service 'it.nexen.server.preop.delivery.StateControl@1ea41ea4' failed to find the required service 'interface com.ibm.team.repository.service.IRepositoryItemService'. Check <prerequisites> in plugin.xml. I have com.ibm.team.repository.service on required plugin and also I can see the service from Component Status on Admin console. Also, I had tried this plugin a couple of weeks ago without any problem, and I have not change anything in server configuration, I've only changed the project area. Unfortunately I can't retry it on the old project area because I've archived it. |

You need more than just the plugin dependency. You need to list the prerequisites in your plugin.xml in your serviceProvider extension:
... <prerequisites> <requiredService interface="com.ibm.team.repository.service.IRepositoryItemService"/> ... --- Ryan Manwiller Jazz Team |
You need more than just the plugin dependency. You need to list the prerequisites in your plugin.xml in your serviceProvider extension: Thank you for the answer, but I don't understand two things: prerequisites tag must be included on extension service tag, but I don't have to extend any service, just get service for my precondition. If I have to use it, what I can put on componentId? I don't want to create new component, can I use one that already exists? The second thing is that so I really don't understand how it could run before, but maybe this is my fault. |

It seems that
<prerequisites> can be also used at operationAdvisor level. It seems to run althrough PDE tells me that <prerequisites> is not a valid child for operationAdvisor. Maybe could be useful have <prerequisites> and <requiredService> included on extension point description so it can be used with PDE. Currently the only way is to add manually in the plugin.xml. |
It seems to run althrough PDE tells me that <prerequisites> is not a valid child for operationAdvisor. It was not true. After I reboot RTC client and server it does not run. So i put prerequisites into extensionService tag. It runs but I still don't understand what I have to put on componentId. I have put the name of my class, like into implementationClass but it doesn't make sense to me. |
Hi, I've a problem during execution of a server side plugin. I've implemented an operation Advisor for delivery operation. Basically, i too faced the same prob, it got fixed. Prob was that i was trying to initialize this service with in the constructor of the service. We cant call getService(IRepositoryItemService.class) within the service constructor. |

I'd like to suggest to update schema definition for this kind of plugin because using PDE there is an annoying warning: the element 'prerequisites' is not a valid child of 'extensionService'.
And this is not true. |
