Query Attribute of Object Attached to Promotion Request

We don't have the ext.alcon class. Is that custom? What version of Windchill are you running? We are on 10.0 M040.

We do exactly this for the ModelCheck errors (which we label as MC_ISSUES in the info page) attribute using the code shown below.

Steve,

How do you use the LWCNormalizedObject class within a promotion notice? I need to query the IBA values for promotion objects stored within the promotion notice object.

I have the following syntax, within an Expression node, which is working nicely, but I cannot seem to get the IBA value for an attribute associated with the object found during the iteration while loop.

promotionDescription = pn.getDescription().toString();// store the text found in the promotion request description attribute

wt.fc.QueryResult pn_targets = (wt.fc.QueryResult) p.getBaselineItems(pn);

Object myObject = pn_targets.nextElement();
if (objType.equals("wt.epm.EPMDocument")) {
epmObjType = objType.toString();
if (objType.equals("wt.doc.WTDocument")) {
docObjType = objType.toString();
}

I have LWCNormalized Object API in your code to retrieve the IBA value. Check if it works for you

wt.maturity.PromotionNotice pn = (wt.maturity.PromotionNotice) primaryBusinessObject;

promotionDescription = pn.getDescription().toString(); // store the text

// found in the

// promotion

// request

// description

// attribute

wt.maturity.StandardMaturityService p = new wt.maturity.StandardMaturityService();

wt.fc.QueryResult pn_targets = (wt.fc.QueryResult) p.getBaselineItems(pn);

while (pn_targets.hasMoreElements()) {

Object myObject = pn_targets.nextElement();

String objType = myObject.getClass().getName(); // get the internal

// name of the

// parent object

// type

if (objType.equals("wt.epm.EPMDocument")) {

isCAD = true;

epmObjType = objType.toString();

com.ptc.core.lwc.server.LWCNormalizedObject obj = new com.ptc.core.lwc.server.LWCNormalizedObject((Persistable) myObject, null, Locale.ENGLISH, null);

}

if (objType.equals("wt.doc.WTDocument")) {

isDocument = true;

docObjType = objType.toString();

}

}

Hope this helps !!!!

Thanks,

Simon,

Thanks for the clarification on seeds vs. targets. From what I can tell, in the Windchill 10.0 JavaDoc, the getBaslineItemsmethod is still available, but you access it via wt.maturity.StandardMaturityService. There is a getPromotionTargets method within the StandardMaturityService class that is used for just accessing the targets. I have updated my code, now, to use that method instead.

Dear All,

Little point on the code, I understood services should be accessed like this

MaturityHelper.service.getBaselineItems(pn)

However I have noticed this API is deprecated (anyone know why or what is the replacement?)

Also note there are two concepts that need to be understood, seeds and targets. Seeds are in the promotion but not marked for promotion, where as targets will be promoted. The baseline contains items that are seeds make sure you get what you want.

I tried putting your code into mine, but I get errors when checking the syntax. Here is the error I get:

public static boolean checkEvent (Object _event, Object [] _values)
D:\ptc\Windchill_10.0\Windchill\temp\WfExpression493019533.java:79: illegal start of expression

throws Exception {
D:\ptc\Windchill_10.0\Windchill\temp\WfExpression493019533.java:80: ';' expected

I think it may have to do with the attribute that I am trying to access. It is a boolean attribute. Is there anything special that I have to do to access a boolean vs. a string?
