How I add new comment for WorkItem using Server Side Plugin

Question

Hi all,

I need a some help. I have an advisor plugin in RTC. I want to add new comment my source workitem.

My code:

IComments comments = sourceworkItem.getComments(); 
IContributorHandle creator = contributorService.fetchContributorByUserId("JAZZDEVADM");
String commentString = "content content some content";
XMLString content = XMLString.createFromPlainText(commentString);
IComment comment = (IComment) comments.createComment(creator, content);						
comments.append(comment);

But i get this error:

Error running operation 'Saving Work Item'

Validation errors for item: type = WorkItem, itemId = [UUID _L2jbAIaJEeSkQJKbbjlvNg]
	Required property must not be null: internalComments.creationDate
Validation errors for item: type = WorkItem, itemId = [UUID _L2jbAIaJEeSkQJKbbjlvNg]

Hi all,
I'd like to share how I did!

The comments aren't a attribute, but a collection.

                    IComments comments = workItem.getComments();
                    Comment newComment = (Comment) comments
                            .createComment(
                             workItem.getCreator(),
                             XMLString.createFromPlainText("write your comment here"));

                   //You have to set a creation date, required.
                   Timestamp now = new Timestamp(System.currentTimeMillis());
                   newComment.setCreationDate(now);
                 comments.append(newComment);


                   //if you want to see your comments list.
                   IComment[] contents = comments.getContents();
                   for (IComment iComment : contents) {
                       System.out.println(iComment.getHTMLContent());
                   }

Hope I can help anybody else, if you like it let a thumbs up!

Hello Hakki.

Are you creating a workitem that same advisor? The workitem must have a "creation date".

Try:

sourceworkItem.setCreationDate(<Timestamp>);

PS: Insert the code above before the comment creation.
