Hello,

Can anyone help me in the following code.

Here i am casting the object type to collection but it is throwing the error.

Collection<Version> parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions = (Collection<Version>) parentIssue.getCustomFieldValue(swgPlannedFixVersionsCustomField);
parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions = removeSubTaskFixVersionsFromParentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions(currentIssue,
parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions,
subTaskFixVersions);
parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions = addSubTaskFixVersionsToParentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions(parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions,
subTaskFixVersions);

private Collection<Version>
removeSubTaskFixVersionsFromParentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions(final Issue subTask,
final Collection<Version> parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions,
final Collection<Version> subTaskFixVersions) {
if (CollectionUtils.isEmpty(parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions)) {
return parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions;
}

if (CollectionUtils.isEmpty(subTaskFixVersions)) {
return parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions;
}

for (Iterator<Version> parentIssuePlannedFixVersionIterator = parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions.iterator(); parentIssuePlannedFixVersionIterator.hasNext();) {
Version parentIssuePlannedFixVersion = parentIssuePlannedFixVersionIterator.next();

if (subTaskFixVersions.contains(parentIssuePlannedFixVersion)) {
parentIssuePlannedFixVersionIterator.remove();
}
}

return parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions;
}

private Collection<Version>
addSubTaskFixVersionsToParentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions(
Collection<Version> parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions,
final Collection<Version> subTaskFixVersions) {
if (CollectionUtils.isEmpty(subTaskFixVersions)) {
return parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions;
}

if (parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions == null) {
parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions = new LinkedList<Version>();
}

parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions.addAll(subTaskFixVersions);

return parentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions;
}

What error is it throwing, and what line of your code does it tell you the error is happening?

[Radu Dumitriu]

Thanks God Java has a 64k identifier length and that IDEs nowadays have autocomplete. The actual value depends on the custom field being queried, in your case 'swgPlannedFixVersionsCustomField'. Put some debug lines on the actual values classes, i.e. on the returned value of the .getCustomFieldValue(swgPlannedFixVersionsCustomField) call.

I sincerely do not understand why somebody would 'removeSubTaskFixVersionsFromParentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions()' and immediately after that 'addSubTaskFixVersionsToParentIssueSwgPlannedFixVersions()'. Anyway, it's your stuff.

I will stop here before I would be slammed as not being nice (and it happened before).

1/ instanceof ? 2/ key of the cfType ?

Thank you so much.

i'll try with the above code.

[Bharadwaj Jannu]

do you get what you want?

[Megha K Y]

Hello Bharadwaj,

Thank you so much for your help.

I haven't tried yet as i am stuck with another plugin activity.

i let you know the status.

[Bharadwaj Jannu]

hello Megha,

go to Admin->Issues->Fields->Custom Fields->{see the type of your customfield, it shows Cascading Select}

programmatically try to get as:

ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("<your cascadings select customfield name>").getCustomFieldType().getName()

[Megha K Y]

Thank you so much.

in the code i used

String str = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("PLANNED_FIX_VERSIONS_CUSTOM_FIELD_NAME").getCustomFieldType().getName();

But how to check whether str is equal to "Cascading Select Type" or of different type.

[Bharadwaj Jannu]

if(str.equals("Cascading Select"))

{

<do some thing>

}

else

{

<do some other thing>

}
