Setting Custom Fields in Jira

[Megha K Y]

Can anyone help me with java code for setting the values to the custom fields in jira and also checking the custom field is of cascade select type and also how to set values for custom field of cascade select type for jira 5.2.5. ?

[Makarand Keer]

We are having JIRA 3.* version, can anybody send me sample code for update issue?

I can create issue using RemoteCustomFieldValue and setting key value, however updateIssue method accepts only RemoteFieldValue and this type does not support key property.

Thanks

Thank you for the quick response.

But when i wrote the foloowing code to check whether the custom field is of type cascade select field i'm the getting the error at line :

if (customField.getCustomFieldType() instanceof CascadingSelectCFType)

it is not recognizing the "CascadingSelectCFType" keyword.

here is the code :

CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();
Collection<CustomField> issueCustomFields = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects(issue);

for (CustomField customField : issueCustomFields) {
if (customField.getCustomFieldType() instanceof CascadingSelectCFType) {
//if(isCascadingSelect(customField)){
addCascadingSelectCustomFieldValueToIssueInputParameters(issueInputParameters,
issue,
customField);

continue;
}

This code is written for jira 5.2.5.

you try explicitely for CascadingSelectCFType customfield and check

CustomField casCF = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("<your casading select field>");

if(casCF!=null)

{

<...>

}
