Returns a List of ChangeHistory entities

Parameters:

issue - the issue.

Returns:

a List of ChangeHistory entries.

getChangeHistoriesForUser

List<ChangeHistory> getChangeHistoriesForUser(Issue issue,
                                              com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User remoteUser)

                                              com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User remoteUser)

5.1

getChangeItemsForField

List<ChangeItemBean> getChangeItemsForField(Issue issue,

a List of ChangeItemBean's for the given issue.

getAllChangeItems

List<ChangeHistoryItem> getAllChangeItems(Issue issue)

Returns a List of ChangeHistoryItem's for the given issue

Parameters:

issue - the issue

Returns:

A list containing all of the change items for a specific Issue

findMovedIssue

Issue findMovedIssue(String originalKey)
                     throws org.ofbiz.core.entity.GenericEntityException

Throws:

org.ofbiz.core.entity.GenericEntityException - if an unexpected error occurs

getPreviousIssueKeys

Collection<String> getPreviousIssueKeys(String issueKey)

Given an issue key, this method returns a list of previous issue keys this issue was moved from. This may be useful for source control plugins for example, where a given changeset should be displayed even after an issue has been moved and it's issue key has changed.

issueKey - The current issue key.

Returns:

A collection of previous issue keys or an empty list if none exist.

getPreviousIssueKeys

Collection<String> getPreviousIssueKeys(Long issueId)

Parameters:

issueId - The id of the issue being looked up.

Returns:

A collection of previous issue keys or an empty list if none exist.
