Runtime Error when viewing comment tab plugin

[Jackson Farnsworth]

When viewing an Issue Tab Panel added in a plugin, I get:
"Error rendering 'com.onenetwork.mergedcomments:test-panel'. Please contact your Jira administrators."

in the logs, I get:

        }

        return commentActions;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean showPanel(Issue issue, ApplicationUser applicationUser) {
        return true;
    }
}

Any idea whats going wrong here?

Found the issue, since I'm moving code from an old plugin used in JIRA 6 to JIRA 7, apparently the method for creating these have changed, and the arguments are no longer passed in to the constructor. Instead, I just used ComponentAccessor to gather them together for use.
