Get exit code of a job run from an external java application

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I am developping a little java application that can run a job depending on some conditions.

All I want is to know inside my java code if the job run successfully or not. 

Here is my code :

        job_launcher talendJob = new job_launcher();
        String [] context = new String[] {"--context_param row_id="+customMessage.toString()};
        String[][] code = talendJob.runJob(context);

        for(String[] s : code){
            for(String s2 : s){
                log.info(s2);
            }
        }

The problem is that the returning code is always 0, even if my job throws a null pointer exception or something else.

So how can I proceed to determine if my job failed ?

Thanks,

Guillaume

Hi,

    Since you are using the main class, it is giving the exit condition as 0. 

     Could you please try below code snippet?

String[] args = {};

local_project.helloworld_0_1.helloworld obj1 = new local_project.helloworld_0_1.helloworld();

int exitCode = obj1.runJobInTOS(args);

if (exitCode != 0)

	      {
	
	throw new NullPointerException("Demo exception - Child job failed !!!! "); 
	}
