[midPoint] Missing C_ORG_TYPE after migrating to midpoint 4.4

Thu Dec 23 10:18:13 CET 2021

Hi Sebastien 

Sorry about the missing SchemaConstant constants. Object type constant for a particular type is best to be found directly in the class of that type as the field COMPLEX_TYPE, e.g.: 

com.evolveum.midpoint.xml.ns._public.common.common_3. OrgType.COMPLEX_TYPE 

Most if not all object types are in the same package, so you can import it for convenience. 

As a side note, strings are immutable so you don't need to write new String("...") , just use that "..." directly as it's immutable. 
Instead of: 
String orgType = new String("{http://midpoint.evolveum.com/xml/ns/public/common/common-3}OrgType"); 

...you can simply write: 
String orgType = "{http://midpoint.evolveum.com/xml/ns/public/common/common-3}OrgType"; 

But your original code should work with this line now (assuming the proper import is added): 
input?.targetRef.type == OrgType.COMPLEX_TYPE ) { 

This issue is not related to removal of various obsolete *Type fileds, it's just a name coincidence. 

Cheers

Subject: [midPoint] Missing C_ORG_TYPE after migrating to midpoint 4.4 

Hello, 

In several places, there some code similar to this one below with a check on the target type as Organization type. 

However since midpoint 4.4 the C_ORG_TYPE constant has been removed from the SchemaConstant. 

<inbound> 

<description>[snip]</description> 

<expression> 

<assignmentTargetSearch> 

<targetType>c:OrgType</targetType> 

<filter> 

<q:equal> 

<q:path>c:name</q:path> 

<expression> 

[snip] 

</expression> 

</q:equal> 

</filter> 

</assignmentTargetSearch> 

</expression> 

<target> 

<set> 

<condition> 

<script> 

<code> 

import com.evolveum.midpoint.schema.constants.SchemaConstants; 

if (input?.targetRef != null && 

input?.targetRef.type == SchemaConstants.C_ORG_TYPE ) { 

orgFonctionnelle = midpoint.getOrgByOid(input.targetRef.oid); 

return orgFonctionnelle?.subtype?.contains('fonctionnel'); 

} 

return false; 

</code> 

</script> 

</condition> 

</set> 

<c:path>$focus/assignment</c:path> 

</target> 

</inbound> 

I would understand, it is related the removal of the objectType, employeeType, roleType, orgType and serviceType in midpoint 4.4 schema but the C_OBJECT_TYPE is still present and neither C_EMPLOYEE_TYPE nor C_ROLE_TYPE existed in 4.0.1 version of SchemaConstant. 

[ https://evolveum.com/downloads/midpoint/4.0.1/midpoint-api-4.0.1-javadoc/com/evolveum/midpoint/schema/constants/SchemaConstants.html | https://evolveum.com/downloads/midpoint/4.0.1/midpoint-api-4.0.1-javadoc/com/evolveum/midpoint/schema/constants/SchemaConstants.html ] I beleive my issue is not related. 

As a workaround I replaced the C_ORG_TYPE by the following piece of code 

String orgType = new String("{http://midpoint.evolveum.com/xml/ns/public/common/common-3}OrgType"); 

if (input?.targetRef != null && 

input?.targetRef.type.toString().equals(orgType)) 

Indeed it is ugly but for now I do not see any other solution. Would anybody can tell be if it is a bug in midpoint 4.4 or if there is a better way ? 

Currently the owner of the midpoint installation is not ready to use the archetypes for this part.
