Script to create a Change Request is no longer working for me...

I have some script that has been working for months...

String varName = <some text>;
String varDesc = <some text>;

wt.change2.WTChangeRequest2 cr = wt.change2.WTChangeRequest2.newWTChangeRequest2();
cr.setName(varName);
cr.setDescription(varDesc);

cr = (wt.change2.WTChangeRequest2) wt.fc.PersistenceHelper.manager.save(cr);

The result was a new Change Request with my preset field values for my business case. As of today, this code fails on the cr.setDescription() call with the following message:

Message: Resource bundle/Message key = wt.introspection.introspectionResource/21

I haven't found any reason or solution yet... but I am assuming someone has. Anyone have some ideas?

Hi @BjoernRueegg

In Windchill 12.0.0.0 is still possible to use setDescription(String)

WTIntrospectionException exception is thrown if the string is longer then 4000 characters

and the error message 21 is:

It seams that string is null

Between 11.1 and 12.0 (I belief) the description field changed from a normal text field to a WYSIWYG field. Perhaps you can't set the description field anymore with setDescription(String string) rather than using the function setLongDescription(HTMLText htmlText)?
