Displaying informational message to user on work item save
We have a work item save operation participant and need on occasion to display an informational message to the end user on a successful work item save. I tried the following code in the operation participant:
The message does display when using the Eclipse Client in the Team Advisor View, but only if if the user selectsShow Detail Tree , expands the Work Item Save, and selects the message. This is not intuitive to the end user. Furthermore, I don't see any way to see the message in Web Client.
What is proper way to display an informational message to the end user on a work item save so that it is always intuitively shown in both the Eclipse and Web clients?
String message = "This is an informational message";
IReportInfo info = collector.createInfo( "This is a test", message );
collector.addInfo( info );

Hi,
Since there is no Team Advisor for the Web UI, it is not possible to show informational messages in a generic way.
This missing feature is tracked in these work items:
