IApprovalDescriptor descriptor= approvals.createDescriptor(WorkItemApprovals.REVIEW_TYPE.getIdentifier(), fApprovalName); but when i get the object as ...
approval.getDescriptor().getName()

Any suggestions on how it can be done? Thanks in advance!

Some example code:
/**
* Tries to find a an approval from the approval data and deletes it if it
* can be found Removes only the first instance found that matches.
*
* @param approvalData
* @return
*/
private boolean updateRemoveApproval(ApprovalInputData approvalData) {
IApprovals approvals = getWorkItem().getApprovals();
List<IApproval> approvalContent = approvals.getContents();
for (IApproval anApproval : approvalContent) {
IApprovalDescriptor descriptor = anApproval.getDescriptor();
if (descriptor.getTypeIdentifier().equals(
approvalData.getApprovalType())
&& descriptor.getName().equals(
approvalData.getApprovalName())) {
approvals.remove(anApproval);
approvals.remove(descriptor);
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
