SOAP getIssue - cascade select now returned as id instead of value on JIRA 5.0

XMLWordPrintable

      Given all the trouble with these fields for the past year, I am not sure if this change was intensional or some code was not moved correctly to the 5.0 level (I haven't looked at 4.4.5 yet). Testing against 5.0 and found the tests broke between 5.0-rc1 and 5.0. Here is the conditioning I now have to have in my tests 

      cascadeSelectByValue = (info?.version > '4.4') && (info?.version < '5.0')

      In other words, after 4.4 got values and after 5.0 it reverted back to pre 4.4 support (ids).

            I understand and agree with the direction, however, there needs to be a difference between not making improvements and fixing obvious regression problems and introducing incompatibilities. This can cause major headaches for upgrades. For an interface that was suppose to be stabilized, there has been a lot of breakage in the 4.x/5.0 time period. Please ensure SOAP APIs retain upward compatibility and regressions get fixed.

            We are no longer actively developing JIRA's XML-RPC or SOAP APIs. We recommend using our REST APIs instead. Please see https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/_JIRA+API+Status for the current status of our various APIs.
