Customfield updateValue class cast exception String cannot be cast to Option

[Komail Badami]

I have a radio button field whose value I am updating during issue creation which is fetched from a workflow transition screen, but I end up getting the below exception

java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to com.atlassian.jira.issue.customfields.option.Option

Below is the code

FieldLayoutItem fieldLayoutItem = ComponentAccessor.getFieldLayoutManager().getFieldLayout(issue)
.getFieldLayoutItem(customField);

DefaultIssueChangeHolder issueChangeHolder = new DefaultIssueChangeHolder();

CustomField customField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject(customFieldId);

CustomFieldManager  custFieldMgr = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();

<--Get the value which was set in the radio button-->
Option optionValue = (Option)mIssue.getCustomFieldValue(custFieldMgr.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_" + customFieldId));

System.out.println("Option value "+optionValue.getValue());

issue.setCustomFieldValue(customField, optionValue.getValue());

ModifiedValue modifiedValue =  new ModifiedValue("", optionValue.getValue());

customField.updateValue(fieldLayoutItem, issue, modifiedValue, issueChangeHolder);

 How can I resolve this issue , I am able to get the values set in the customfield but due to this cannot update the values when the issue is created.

Hi

Does it work if you change these two lines as shown below?

issue.setCustomFieldValue(customField, optionValue);
ModifiedValue modifiedValue =  new ModifiedValue(null, optionValue);
