Adding List of Build Definitions to Work Item

Somebody must have a thought on this! Does it require complex JavaScript code to implement?

Hi Gary,

Although Work Items supports an Item type of attribute (and also Item list), there's not currently an item picker for build definitions.
Feel free to file an enhancement request, with details about your scenario.

In the meantime, you could emulate this using an enumeration, but you'd have to configure the values yourself in the process specification.

You might be able to cobble something together using the new HTTP provider support (which got backported to 3.0.1 FP1) and the OSLC Automation API (prototype).

e.g. https://jazz.net/jazz/oslc/contexts/_1w8aQEmJEduIY7C8B09Hyw/automation/plans
lists the build definitions (aka 'automation plans' in OSLC Automation parlance) for the RTC project area.

For the build definition ids, you'd need to extract the values (char data) of the dc:title elements.

I'm not sure whether the HTTP provider support works with our form-based authentication though.

Nick:

Thanks much for your answers. You verified what I suspected...

I will file an enhancement request - just didn't want to do so until I was sure my hunch was correct. I would imagine that others have a requirement to list various RTC "system enumerations" as well.
