How to use SearchResults class in Jira 8 ??

[Albert Cameron]

SearchResults results = searchService.search(user, query, PagerFilter.getUnlimitedFilter());

I am on Jira 8 . I am using SearchResults Class.

It was easy with Jira 7. There was a method getIssues().

But now on Jira 8 there is only method getPages() oder getResults(). Both return a List with no further information. A raw List , not with a specific dataType .

So I really do not know how to get the issues now. 

I just found out SearchResult is also generic. 

Maybe this is possible:

SearchResults<Issue> results = searchService.search(user, query, PagerFilter.getUnlimitedFilter());

But does Jira query not always return Issue Object?

Hi @Albert Cameron you are right, method searchService.search returns SearchResults<Issue>. You can check it in javadoc of this method

https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/8.13.4/com/atlassian/jira/bc/issue/search/SearchService.html#search-com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser-com.atlassian.query.Query-com.atlassian.jira.web.bean.PagerFilter-

And example of the code is:

It is in groovy but it is not so difficult to write the same in Java :)
