@PublicApi

This class is designed for plugins to consume (call its methods).

Clients of @PublicApi can expect that programs compiled against a given version will remain binary compatible with later versions of the @PublicApi as per each product's API policy as long as the client does not implement/extend @PublicApi interfaces or classes (refer to each product's API policy for the exact guarantee---usually binary compatibility is guaranteed at least across minor versions).

Note: since @PublicApi interfaces and classes are not designed to be implemented or extended by clients, we may perform certain types of binary-incompatible changes to these classes and interfaces, but these will not affect well-behaved clients that do not extend/implement these types (in general, only classes and interfaces annotated with @PublicSpi are safe to extend/implement).

Class Overview

Basic representation of something that happens to an Issue, such as a modification or comment. Event listeners register to receive these.

The IssueEvent object thrown as a result of an edit operation, may now return null from a getChangeLog() call. This can occur when a user chooses to edit an issue but only leaves a comment and makes no other changes to the issue.

Prior to 3.5.2 no event was fired in this case and this was identified as a bug (JRA-9415) and has since been fixed. Check any calls to getChangeLog() for null.

Constants

public static final String SEND_MAIL

Constant Value: "sendMail"

Fields

public static final String BASE_URL_PARAM_NAME

Key of event parameter holding the application's base URL.

public static final String CHANGE_HISTORY_PARAM_NAME

In case of issue delete events, a param with this key will store list of this issue's change history as a list of ChangeHistoryItem objects.

public static final String COMMENTS_PARAM_NAME

In case of issue delete events, a param with this key will store list of this issue's comments as a list of Comment objects.

public static final String CUSTOM_FIELDS_PARAM_NAME

In case of issue delete events, a param with this key may store the custom field values of the deleted issue.

NOTE: this parameter is not guaranteed to exist so explicit check in the event parameters map must be performed by the clients. If not found, the custom field values may be retrieved by means of field manager from the issue object associated with the event.

public static final String WATCHERS_PARAM_NAME

In case of issue delete events, a param with this key may store list of this issue's watchers as a list of User objects.

NOTE: this parameter is not guaranteed to exist so explicit check in the event parameters map must be performed by the clients. If not found, the value may be retrieved via getWatchers(com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue).
