How to create ILocation?

Jeff Care (1.0k●38●33) | asked Mar 23 '11, 2:00 p.m.
How does one create an instance of ILocation? The only implementation I could find of this interface is com.ibm.team.filesystem.client.internal.PathLocation which is obviously meant to be internal.

Just as future reference the code needed is mentioned in https://jazz.net/forum/questions/158130/how-to-programmatically-construct-the-absolute-uri-for-an-object-like-snapshot : 

import com.ibm.team.repository.common.Location;


Location location = Location.itemLocation(someJazzArtefactObject, teamRepository.getRepositoryURI());                                          
URI myURI = location.toAbsoluteUri();

Still waiting for an answer on this one, and I'm having a similar problem with IRelativeLocation.

Hi,

ILocation is implemented by PathLocation. There are numerous references to ILocation in the SDK (I had to create a plugin project and add com.ibm.team.* to the dependencies however to find them).

One code snippet I found was: 

	public IShareable findShareable(String path) throws FileSystemException {

		// Canonicalize the item

		ILocation absolute = SubcommandUtil.makeAbsolutePath(config, path);


Why do you want to create one? What do you want to achieve?

Thanks,

Ralph

We are writing our own build engine implementation, so we have to load the source from RTC. To load the source we're using ILoadOperation, which requires an ISandbox. To get/create a sandbox we're using com.ibm.team.filesystem.client.ISharingManager.getSandbox(ILocation, boolean), which requires ILocation as a parameter.

I had already found com.ibm.team.filesystem.client.internal.PathLocation, and my code is working. But com.ibm.team.filesystem.client.internal.PathLocation is not meant to be exposed externally, as evidenced by this compiler warning: 

Discouraged access: The type PathLocation is not accessible due to restriction on required library C:\Program Files\IBM\RTC-SDK-3.0\plugins\com.ibm.team.filesystem.client_2.1.0.v20101110_2353.jar

Hi Jeff,

agreed with the compiler warning.

I am just wondering, wouldn't it be easier to use the SCM tool and call that instead of recoding all the load manually?

Thanks,

Ralph

The short answer is no: it wouldn't be easier. We experimented with the SCM command line and couldn't make it do all the things we needed it to do.

But that's besides the point, really. The fact is that RTC presents public APIs that expect certain parameters types that, as far as I can tell, are impossible to create without violating package access contraints.

Jeff,

I found 1400 hits for ILocation in the SDK. I did not review all. The one above is public.
