You are not using a "simple java program" here. You are using a pre-written library that already handles a lot of the connection stuff, and the error you are getting is a common one for people who have just picked it up and thought "I don't need to understand this stuff, I can just start using it without reading how to use it or what it's actually for".

Your best option is to work within the Atlassian SDK, which includes the dependencies you need for using JRJC, or you need to understand what you need to pull in the right dependencies. My bookmarks contain https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/wiki/display/JRJC/Downloadfor understanding that, and a note to include com.atlassian.sal in the pom.xml

Thank you for your help. I'll go through what you suggested.

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

You haven't imported the application properties class, or you've not included the library in your class path.

[HariK]

Thank you for your help. Can you please suggest me what library I need to include ?

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

The one containing the application properties class.

Diffficult to tell you though - we don't know where your code is actually running. Plugin, connect, externally etc?

[HariK]

Thiss my method which I'm calling from a class and I'm doing this in eclipse.

public JiraIssueAgent(JiraConfig config) throws URISyntaxException {

JiraRestClientFactory factory = new AsynchronousJiraRestClientFactory();

URI jiraServerUri = new URI(config.getUrl());

JiraRestClient restClient = factory.createWithBasicHttpAuthentication(jiraServerUri, config.getUsername(), config.getPassword());

init(restClient);

}

Please suggest me the necessary libraries to include..

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

No, sorry, I was not clear when I said we don't know *where* your code is running.

Is it a plugin/addon for Jira? A "Connect" addon? A hack in the core of Jira? A gadget? An external program (Which won't need the the library, because it's outside Jira)?

[HariK]

Thank you for your patience. It's An external program trying to connect to Jira with a login user and password

JiraRestClient restClient = factory.createWithBasicHttpAuthentication(jiraServerUri, config.getUsername(), config.getPassword());

this lines returns me an error syaing Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/atlassian/sal/api/ApplicationProperties

what is this com/atlassian/sal How should I get this.

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

You don't need the com/atlassian/sal stuff for external programs. You connect via REST and get JSON formatted responses back.

[HariK]

Thank you for your help.
