[leejimin1006]

Hi, I'm JIRA plugin developer.

I want to set multi-user-select customfield by java code.

so, i try.

My source:

String strUserList = "admin, leejimin1006" // sample JIRA ID
MutableIssue issue = issueResult.getIssue();
issue.setCustomFieldValue(customField, strUserList);

But, I unsolved still..

help me, please.

multi-user-select customfield:

The custom field value is expecting a list of things you want to set, not a string.

Well, to be more precise, the function is expecting an object. For text fields, that object would be a string, for a select list, it should be an option object, and for multi-selects where you want to set more than one value, it should be a list of options. Additionally, although I'm not 100% sure of this, I think a multi-user-select field would expect a list of user objects, rather than objects.

Hi I resolved.

When Create Issue:

CustomField customField;

MutableIssue issue;

ArrayList<String> userList; // sample IDs

customField.createValue(issue, userList);

When Update Issue:

CustomField customField;

MutableIssue issue;

ArrayList<String> userList; // sample IDs

issue.setCustomFieldValue(customField, userList);

Thank you.

I'm using JIRA 6.0

Looks like store() method does not work for custom fields. What's the alternative approach?
