Method Details

getIssuePriority

public static String getIssuePriority(WTChangeIssue cIssue)

Determine if the passed Change Issue is critical or non-critical. Returns ProcessHelper.CRITICAL if the issue has IssuePriority "Emergency", and ProcessHelper.NON_CRITICAL otherwise.

Supported API: true

Parameters:

cIssue -

                                    throws ChangeException2,
WTException

Determine if the passed Change Issue has been formalized into a Change Request. Returns true if the passed Change Issue is related to a Change Request through a Formalized By association. Returns false otherwise.

Supported API: true

Parameters:

cIssue -

Returns:

Boolean

checkRequestFinished

public static String checkRequestFinished(WTChangeIssue cIssue)
                                   throws ChangeException2,
WTException

Determine if the parent Change Request is in state "Complete" or "Cancelled." Returns ProcessHelper.COMPLETE if the parent Change Request is in state "Complete."
