issue.get("comment") don't work as expected

[Dmitry]

Hi,

I'm using JIRA Misc Custom Fields 1.7.0 with JIRA v7.0.0#70107. Always get NullPointerException when I'm trying to issue.get("comment") for a List<> of comments. Full formula is:

<!-- @@Formula:
int numComments = issue.get("comment").size();
if(numComments > 0)
{
return (issue.get("comment")).get(size-1).getUpdated();
}
else
{
return new Date(issue.get("updated"));
}
-->

and eval of first string throws an exception. Issue have several comments. Tried in different ways, results in nothing, so your's advice wanted. Thanks!

This is in fact a bug in JIRA Misc Custom Field 1.7.0 (and 1.6.3). It is tracked at: https://innovalog.atlassian.net/browse/JMCF-196

The bug is already fixed and a new release is on the way.

Sorry for the inconvenience,

David

I'm looking into it.

P.S.: Initial formula have an error, "get(size-1)", I've fixed to "get(numComments-1)", but it don't help.

[Dmitry]

Yes. But some of the issues from table-view filter (which includes this custom field) may not have comments.

And you confirm that issue CUTMAN-5 has at least one comment, right?

Can you post the full error (with stack trace) you found in your log file?
