how to use ofbiz?

[mehran haghani]

H,

how can i use ofbiz to store my data to jira database and read them ?

for create tables, i know that i have to add entity to ofbiz xml files, but i can't find how to use ofbiz (ofbiz delegator) in my action class to store my data to my tables

it's not that much hard to work with ofbiz. I can put a sample for you. maybe Jira Development Cookbook (chapter 10:Dealing with database) can help you. I've seen good examples about ofbiz in this book.

OfBizDelegator delegator = ComponentAccessor
.getComponentOfType(OfBizDelegator.class);

for (GenericValue worklog : delegator.findByCondition("Worklog",
condition, null)) {// do something}

thanks Nic,

i'm using jira 3.7 and Unfortunately i can not upgrade to a newer version of jira becouse i customize jira by modifying some jsps that now i can not modify them in newer version again(its very difficult) , so i think using ofbiz is easear than upgrade

Hmm, my memory of OfBiz disagrees with that. It's worth upgrading simply because you are unsupportable and insecure on Jira 3.7, and moving to Active Objects is a LOT easier than OfBiz.

The old bookmarks I had for OfBiz coding have been removed, presumably because they're old and deprecated, so I'm afraid I can't help you.

Hopefully, one of the other people here can help, but I suspect many will also say "just get on and upgrade it". Or google!

I assume you're using an older version of Jira?

The correct answer really is for you to upgrade to a supported version of Jira, one with Active Objects support.
