How do you create a snapshot using the java api?

Try:

import com.ibm.team.repository.client.ITeamRepository;

import com.ibm.team.scm.client.IWorkspaceManager;

import com.ibm.team.scm.client.SCMPlatform;

...



ITeamRepository repo = ...

IWorkspaceHandle ws = ...

IWorkspaceManager manager = SCMPlatform.getWorkspaceManager(repo);

IWorkspaceConnection connection = manager.getWorkspaceConnection(ws);

IBaselineSet snapshot = connection.createBaselineSet(null, "snapshot name", "snapshot comment", true, progressMonitor);

compile error:

incompatible types
found : com.ibm.team.scm.common.IBaselineSetHandle
required: com.ibm.team.scm.common.IBaselineSet
IBaselineSet snapshot = stream.createBaselineSet(null, "snapshot name", "snapshot comment", true, MONITOR);

my code snippit:

// Create Stream
IWorkspaceConnection stream = wm.createStream(processarea, streamName, msg, MONITOR);

// Add new components
stream.addComponent(component,baseConnection,false,MONITOR);

// Create snapshot
IBaselineSet snapshot = stream.createBaselineSet(null, "snapshot name", "snapshot comment", true, MONITOR);

change to

IBaselineSetHandle snapshot = stream.createBaselineSet(null, "snapshot name", "snapshot comment", true, MONITOR);

compiles but blows up:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.ibm.team.scm.client.internal.WorkspaceConnection.createBaselineSet(WorkspaceConnection.java:3264)
at branch.Repository.createStream(Repository.java:464)

at branch.CmdRequest.main(CmdRequest.java:26)

My mistake -- createBaselineSet returns a handle, not an item.

The NPE is due to the null first argument (though the spec says this is allowed). Try passing Collections.emptyList() instead.

I've opened 112903: IWorkspaceConnection.createBaselineSet fails with null excludedComponents.

excludedComponents can not be null.

IBaselineSetHandle snapshot = stream.createBaselineSet(excludedComponents, "snapshot name", "snapshot comment", false, MONITOR);

Yes. Does it work if you pass Collections.emptyList() instead?

For future use: It does work with Collections.emptyList()

Now it´s deprecated. How do I use the new one?
