Get IIteration by OSLC Uri (in RTC Java Plain API)
Hi,
we are using the RTC Java Plain API to create iterations in a CM project area.
But we don't find a way to get the OSLC uri for a generated IIteration object.
And on the other hand, we want to access an IIteration for a given OSLC uri, e.g.
Is this possible with the RTC Java Plain API, and if so, can give some hints please.
Thanks for you help!

Steve,
the pieces I think I know below.
1. The itemHandle contains the UUID.
com.ibm.team.repository.common.IItemHandle.getItemId()
2. The UUID can be converted to a string and would look like "_29rygDLaEeqnQ6MhncA" in your case above.
3. As explained in https://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2013/03/20/understanding-and-using-the-rtc-java-client-api/ , if you know the item type you can create an item handle using the UUID:
Handles can be resolved and searched etc.
IItemHandle handle = [itemtype].ITEM_TYPE.createItemHandle(UUID.valueOf(uuid_string), null);
4. The URIs to different items look different. https://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2012/09/20/the-rtc-workitem-server-link-api-linking-to-work-items-and-other-elements/ explains the "Location" based URI and how to create one.
In the EWM SCM Utils https://github.com/jazz-community/ewm-scm-utils I use this code to create a URI for an item:
public static URI getURIForItem(IItemHandle item) {
Location location = Location.itemLocation(item, getPublicURI(item));
return location.toAbsoluteUri();
}
public static String getPublicURI(IItemHandle item) {
return getPublicURI(((ITeamRepository) item.getOrigin()));
}
/**
* Returns the public URI root used to construct public locations for the
* given repository. If the repository has no public URI root configured,
* its regular URI is returned.
*
* @param repo
* the repository
* @return the public URI root for the repository (never <code>null</code>)
*/
public static String getPublicURI(ITeamRepository repo) {
String uri = repo.publicUriRoot();
if (uri == null) {
uri = repo.getRepositoryURI();
}
return uri;
}
