Hi Patrick,

How can I take a look at IWorkItemClient, IAuditableClient, IQueryClient ?

Where can I see Javadoc for these classes ?

Thanks a lot !

Hi Dac Lan

I would like to know if there are the APIs for work items. For
example, if I don't use Eclipse to query work items, can I use an API
to do this ?

Yes, there are APIs for work items, queries etc.:

Take a look at IWorkItemClient, IAuditableClient, IQueryClient (i.e the
client libraries exposed by the work item component).

The client libraries that expose those APIs are available from an
ITeamRepository instance.

In an non-OSGi Java app, you can start the team platform using the
following code (I am guessing here as I haven't used this myself):

TeamPlatform.startup();
ITeamRepositoryService service= TeamPlatform.getTeamRepositoryService();
ITeamRepository repository= service.getTeamRepository(...);
....log in
IAuditableClient client= (IAuditableClient)
repository.getClientLibrary(IAuditableClient.class);
....do something with IAuditableClient
....log out
TeamPlatform.shutdown();


Here's an example of some query code (returning all work items of a
project area) that I posted in another news thread:

Assuming that you have a project area handle:

IProjectAreaHandle projectArea= ...

Access the client libraries:

ITeamRepository repository= (ITeamRepository) projectArea.getOrigin();
IAuditableClient auditableClient= (IAuditableClient)
repository.getClientLibrary(IAuditableClient.class);

Create the query:

WorkItemQueryModel model= WorkItemQueryModel.ROOT;
IItemQuery query= IItemQuery.FACTORY.newInstance(model);
IPredicate predicate= model.projectArea()._eq(query.newItemHandleArg());
query.filter(predicate);

Execute the query:

ItemQueryIterator<IWorkItemHandle> iterator= new
ItemQueryIterator<IWorkItemHandle>(auditableClient, query, new Object[]
{ projectArea });

List<IWorkItem> workItems=
auditableClient.resolveAuditables(iterator.toList(monitor),
IWorkItem.SMALL_PROFILE, monitor);


HTH,
Patrick
