Without any code from you it is impossible to find out what you are doing wrong. I can get the Found in attribute in my code. It should look like:

        int id = new Integer(idString).intValue();

        IWorkItem workItem = workItemClient.findWorkItemById(id,
                IWorkItem.SMALL_PROFILE, null);
        IAttribute foundIn = workItemClient.findAttribute(projectArea,
                IWorkItem.FOUND_IN_PROPERTY, null);
        if (workItem.hasAttribute(foundIn)){
            IDeliverableHandle foundInValueHandle = (IDeliverableHandle) workItem.getValue(foundIn);
            IDeliverable foundInValue = (IDeliverable)teamRepository.itemManager().fetchCompleteItem(foundInValueHandle, IItemManager.REFRESH, null);
            System.out.println("Found In "+ foundInValue.getName() );
        }
        System.out.println("Accessed work item: " + workItem.getId() + ".");

 https://server_port/ccm/oslc/workitems/workitem_number.xml?oslc_cm.properties=rtc_cm:foundIn

Fill in your own server, port and workitem number.

When I try https://server_port/ccm/oslc/workitems/workitem_number.xml?oslc_cm.properties=rtc_cm:foundIn I get page cannot be displayed.

When I try s://server_port/ccm/oslc/workitems/ or s://server_port/ccm/oslc/ I get The requested resource () is not available.

Do I need to do something to turn on OSLC services or should it be on by default?  I experimenting with the standard Windows 7 RTC download.

 Did you change server, port and workitem number to real names on your network?   For instance if your jazz server was named myserver and its IP 192.168.6.1.   Its port 9443.   A valid workitem was 502, then the following lines would work for you:

https://myserver:9443/ccm/oslc/workitems/502.xml?oslc_cm.properties=rtc_cm:foundIn

or

https://192.168.6.1:9443/ccm/oslc/workitems/502.xml?oslc_cm.properties=rtc_cm:foundIn

 Also if you just put, 



You will get all the properties.


Michael Taylor commented Jun 27 '13, 2:53 p.m.

That works!  Thanks.  I'm new to OSLC so I didn't realize you could post the work item number.xml to get it to work.

The first statement didn't list the actual foundIn value.  But the 502.xml displaying all properties did.  I need to figure out how to list the value of a property.

I've spent a fair amount of time using the Reportable REST API to extract work item information I need for another application.  (For example, list certain fields - including some parent and child values - for all work items in a particular project, state, and planned for.) 

How would using OSLC for that compare to using the Reportable REST API?  Is there a clear advantage to one over the other?

Here is what I am doing with REST:

   (I'll list it in the next comment:)

 Sorry I haven't done alot of REST API.   For some local scripting I needed, I used python, did the authentication, then fetched the XML.  Using python libs for XML I was able to retrieve any field I needed.

Hi Ralph Schoon

I get the error while running your code:

 com.sun.proxy.$Proxy26 cannot be cast to com.ibm.team.workitem.api.common.IDeliverable

Could you help?

  1. Don't post new questions on questions that are already answered and accepted
  2. Create a new question
  3. Create a question, that has actually data that others could work on

 You obviously try to cast something to something, that can't be casted that way. 

Debug your code and use the instanceof operation to ensure you can indeed cast the object to what you want to cast it to.

Hi Ralph

I could identify the error. Actually I was not able to use IDeliverable, instead I used  Deliverable Class (without "I") and I could retrieve foundIn attribute. Check my code:

IAttribute attribute = workItemClient.findAttribute(projectAreaHandle,identifier, iProgressMonitor);
Object value = workItem.getValue(attribute);

if (value instanceof IDeliverableHandle){
    IDeliverableHandle foundInValueHandle = (IDeliverableHandle) workItem.getValue(attribute);
    Deliverable foundInValue = (Deliverable)teamRepository.itemManager().fetchCompleteItem(foundInValueHandle, IItemManager.REFRESH, null);
    System.ou.println(foundInValue.getName());
}

Thank you!
