Hi @jayanthi Ganesan​,

 

I may have completely misunderstood your requirement but this series of blogs I have written may help or give you a few ideas to work on this solution yourself.

Hi Rhall,

The post is so detailed to work on the context variable.

 

I just have a small doubt ...My job generates the context name (Key) and value only during run time and we don't use database...I have to store the key and value in file and access the file to assign the key to value and load in the child job ..

Is that possible ?

 

Regards,

Jayanthi

Why can you not pass the data directly to your child job via the context variables in the tRunJob? That would be far easier. But if there is a reason why this cannot be done, it should be very easy to write out to a file in your parent job and then read that file into your child job.
