Issues programatically creating approval records

0
Cindy Luk (13●1●1) | asked Sep 28 '12, 3:10 p.m.
Here is the code snippet:
            IApprovals approvals= workItem.getApprovals();
            approvals.createDescriptor(WorkItemApprovals.VERIFICATION_TYPE.getIdentifier(), "Verification Record");
            IApproval approval= approvals.createApproval(descriptor, reviewer);
            approvals.add(approval);

I am getting the following error on the createDescriptor line.
com.ibm.team.repository.common.internal.ImmutablePropertyException

From my research so far, that exception usually can be fixed by using the workItemCopy.  However, approvals and Iapprovals doesn't like workitemcopy.

Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?
Thx

Cindy, approvals do like working copies, as far as I can tell. The example code here should work for you: http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2012/10/01/adding-approvals-to-work-items-using-the-plain-java-client-libraries/

You can use the active piece with a WorkItemOperation as well with your own workingcopy code.

Thanks for the information.  I now have working code.
It turns out my issue was having an incorrect import statement.  The correct imports are as follows:
import com.ibm.team.workitem.common.model.IApproval;
import com.ibm.team.workitem.common.model.IApprovalDescriptor;

The incorrect import is this:
import com.ibm.team.workitem.common.template.IWorkItemDescriptor.IApproval;

Cindy, please accept the answer then. (The check mark underneath the vote down).

FYI , I ran into an issue recently, where I had an incorrect issue too. It appears that agile planning .apt. has classes with conflicting names too. Thanks for the information.
