ComponentAccessor in jira always returning "null" while accessing a component. How exactly do we use this to get an object of a class?

Question

hi,

I am using ComponentAccessor to get an object of a component as ComponentManager methods appear all to be deprecated. So far i have tried the following code and it always returns null.

1.  ComponentAccessor.getComponent(EpicLinkManagerImpl.class)

2. ComponentAccessor.getComponentofType(EpicLinkManagerImpl.class)

The EpicLinkManagerImpl.class belongs to the jira greenhopper plugin and i am tring to access this in my own custom plugin.

how can i achieve this? is there anything im doing wrong? or is there any other alternative?

hi jamie, thanks for your answer.

I am facing problem regarding greenHopperCacheManager and applicationContext in the variation of this code in java. Can someone please share the corresponding code snippet in java?

It's not a component, or not a public component. You could try using the latest version of script runner and seeing Working With JIRA Agile.
