How Can I get childworkitems ,its type and current state from references.

Question

I can get type and current state of the parent workitem.
I want to fetch its child workitems and its type and its current state.
and want to put condition by checking the states of parent and child.
I used operation advisor for this.
(I referred other forums too ,which are related to the child workitems but didn't t get help. )

I got the child references. I tried following code.

Object data = operation.getOperationData();        
                                  // The action is save
        if (data instanceof ISaveParameter)
 {
                                  // Get state of auditable item
            ISaveParameter saveParameter = (ISaveParameter) data;
            IAuditable auditable = saveParameter.getNewState();            
                                  // If everything is correct, the auditable is an WorkItem      if (auditable instanceof IWorkItem)

{
                IWorkItem parentWorkItem = (IWorkItem) auditable;

                //Getting WorkItem service
IWorkItemServer workItemServer = getService(IWorkItemServer.class);
IWorkItemReferences references = workItemServer.resolveWorkItemReferences(parentWorkItem, null);
List<IReference> listChildReferences = references.getReferences(WorkItemEndPoints.CHILD_WORK_ITEMS);

for (Iterator iterator = listChildReferences.iterator(); iterator
                        .hasNext();
{
                    IReference childReference = (IReference) iterator.next();
                    
                    ILink link = childReference.getLink();

Please give me your valuable suggestion to achieve my task.

Kaushik,

I would suggest to read https://jazz.net/library/article/1000 carefully and maybe http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2012/07/31/rtc-update-parent-duration-estimation-and-effort-participant/ because it talks about similar items.

You need to use this.getService() to get services in participants and advisors.

IRepositoryItemService reposervice = getService(IRepositoryItemService.class);

Should get it. You probably have to add it to the prerequisites in the plugin.xml too. See the post mentioned above to understand what a prerequisite is.

IWorkItemHandle ChildWIHandle = (IWorkItemHandle) childReference.resolve();
if(ChildWIHandle != null){
       ChildWorkItem = (IWorkItem) repositoryItemService.fetchItem(ChildWIHandle ,IRepositoryItemService.COMPLETE);

}

With this Child Workitem, you can get the Type and ID details.

Also am not getting "repositoryItemService" .

ERROR is "Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method fetchItem(IItemHandle, String[]) from the type RepositoryItemService"

It's all about the answers!
