Getting error while using TextCFType for custom field

Saurabh Rajendr

I am trying to develop a custom field using below Java code :

public class ReadOnlyUserCF extends TextCFType@{
	private final JiraAuthenticationContext authContext;
	public ReadOnlyUserCF(CustomFieldValuePersister customFieldValuePersister, StringConverter stringConverter, GenericConfigManager genericConfigManager, JiraAuthenticationContext authContext) {
		super(customFieldValuePersister, stringConverter, genericConfigManager);
		this.authContext = authContext;
	}
	
	@Override
	public Map getVelocityParameter(Issue issue, CustomField field, FieldLayoutItem fieldLayoutItem){
		Map params = super.getVelocityParameters(issue, field, fieldLayoutItem);
		params.put("currentUser", authContext.getLoggedInUser().getName());
		return params;
	}
}

But I am getting below error :

The method getVelocityParameter(APKeys.JiraIndexConfiguration.Issue, CustomField, FieldLayoutItem) of type ReadOnlyUserCF must override or implement a supertype method.

Also TextCFType is showing deprecated.

Please share your knowledge.

Thanks

Why is the first parameter APKeys.JiraIndexConfiguration.Issue?

It should be Issue object.
