Accessing a file froma work item

Karim Riad (1●1●8●9) | asked Jul 23 '12, 6:54 a.m.
Hello,
I know that we can associate a change set to a work item. But I need to link a specific file (not a change set) to a work item (maybe through plain Java Client Libraries) so by clicking on the work item, I can open the file. Is there a way to do that?
Thank you.

You can attach a file to a work item, so when you click on the attachment in the work item the file is opened.  (I don't know if this is what you want.  And if it is, I don't know how to do it programmatically.)

There is no way to link between a work item and a specific file that is under source control.

When you click on a work item, the work item will be opened. There is no way to change that. You can attach a file to the work item as an attachment, but to open the file the user has to click on the attachment link in the work item.

You can attach a specific file under version control to a work item by obtaining a URL for that file from the RTC Web UI.  In particular, you can get the URL of the current version of that file in a specific stream, or you can get a specific version of that file (from the "history" of that file).  You would then create a "related artifact" link in the work item using that URL.
