How to get the WTPrincipal wo did the checkout of an object?

[pnierkamp]

Hello,


I'm looking for a way to determine who has checked out an object in Windchill.


I tried it a little bit with this piece of code:

w = CheckInOutTaskLogic.getWorkingCopy(w);
if (CheckInOutTaskLogic.isCheckedOut(w)) {
if (CheckInOutTaskLogic.isCheckedOutByOther(w))
checkedOutBy = CheckInOutTaskLogic.getCheckedOutBy(w);
else
checkedOutBy = SessionHelper.getPrincipal();
}
}

"w" is a Workable and WorkInProgressHelper.isCheckedOut(w) returns true.


But CheckInOutTaskLogic.getCheckedOutBy(w) returns always null.


Is something wrong with this approach?



Thanks in advance

Regards

Hi Philipp,

Try the getCheckedOutBy api on checkedout object rather than working
copy.

Workable originalCopy = WorkInProgressHelper.service.originalCopyOf(w);
CheckInOutTaskLogic.getCheckedOutBy(originalCopy) ;
