Modify TeamConfiguration in a ProjectArea

We don't provide API to manipulate process configurations. When you want
to conduct some experiments you can try to use the internal
implementation classes (which can change at any point in time). This
would look somewhat like this:

Map<String> data= projectArea.getProcessData();
IContent cnt = data.get(ProcessContentKeys.PROCESS_SPECIFICATION_KEY);
if (cnt!= null) {
String xmlSource = createStringFromContent(cnt);
ProcessSpecificationModel model = new ProcessSpecificationModel();
Exception exception= model.initialize(xmlSource);
if (exception != null) {
handleException(exception);
} else {
xmlSource = manipulate(xmlSource);
set new source to project area working copy
save project area working copy
}
}

So I want to be able to configure the precondition/followup-actions for

programmatically?

I got a IProjectArea object and tried all getters/setters, but couldn't
find APIs to do what I want to do.

I look at the source of the ProjectAreaEditor and
ProcessConfigurationPage, but couldn't figure out how it's done.

Thanks.

Thanks Kai,
Before I posted the question, I did try to get the IContent. However,
after I got the IContent, I didn't know what to do.

But after reading your response, I searched for the
createStringFromContent(..) method and was able to find it.

So I am able to get the ProcessSpecificationModel, and I use that model
to get the TeamConfiguration, then use the TeamConfiguration to get the
other needed elements. I don't know if this is the right way to do or
should I parse the xmlSource and make changes using XML parser.

Again, thank you.
