Updating custom field value on moving between projects

Alexey Dorofeyev

I've got custom field type (numeric) field.

Value of this field is id of one of active objects, linked to specific project.

So when i'm moving issue to another project, i wish to update custom field value according to new project.

How this can be done?

Code.

Two options spring to mind - hacking the "move" functionality in the core of JIRA, and not actually doing it in the move at all.

The second option means writing a listener that could catch the "move" event, have a look at the issue and change the number as appropriate (technically, this would happen after the move, not as part of it, but it will usually be fast enough that the users will see it as the same action)
