Unique identifier - TOS - DI

root — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 07:22:30 GMT

Hello:

I have created a job which is going to perform lots of tasks. This is setup on a scheduler, runs every few minutes.

What I am seeking is a type of unique identifier which can be generated for each run which I can save somewhere and reference back to. I would love to use that unique identifier and log some stats too if possible.

I know in TESB, hosting a service via tRestRequest generates a unique correlation_id which can be used to tie up all requests/ responses.

Is something available in TOS_DI similar to a correlation_id?

Thank you.

You can get the current time when the job starts with the format yyyyMMddhhmmss. This make sense if you need to keep the trace of the moment the job has started.
Else you can use the public variable this.pid which gives you the process id for the running job.

Hmm. Interesting. Is there anything else like a correlation Id available?
