Batch Comment Updates

web-app

I have to run multiple similar Issues to cope with the lack of "sub-projects" in Gemini.  This works OK, and was made a lot easier when the Batch Updates and Issue Copy functions were added.

However, at the time I asked about the need to add the same comment to a batch of issues.  You logged this as http://gemini.countersoft.com/issue/ViewIssue.aspx?id=483 but there still doesn't seem to be an ETA for its implementation.

We are concentrating on 2.1 at the moment. When it is released we will assign ALL open issues a target version.

That rather sounds like "don't hold your breath..." :-(

Any ideas for a workaround in the meantime?

Use web services to batch create comment.

Not natively being a .NET programmer, can you please sketch out a bit of an overview as to how to do this?

Presumably I somehow need to identify the Issues to add the comment to, data entry for the comment, then write this comment to each of the Issues in turn?

Have a look at our web services sample app: http://www.countersoft.com/Default.aspx?PageID=58

But basically, you have to get a list of issue ids to add the comment to and call a web service to create the comment on each issue.
