Pass context variable or value from child job to parent job

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have a child job and it parent job and both are using same context group.

The context variable is set to null initially.

In the child job i am setting the value for the context variable and trying to fetch the same variable in parent job, but getting null. In the parent job i have checked "Transmit whole context".

I know one way where i put the value in globalmap in child and pass it using tbufferoutput in the parent.

But is there any way i can get the value directly from context in my parent job without using tBufferOutput?

Take a look at this

There is also a tStaticMap component in exhange.

Hi,

    My suggestion will be to follow the tBufferOutput method as it is quite seamless. Are you facing any issues while using this method?
