Propagate child result with dynamic job?

[KelseyS]

I have a Talend Studio job where I am calling a dynamic child job based on the type of file processed. All the potential child jobs contain a tLogCatcher -> tBufferOutput where I am trying to get some tWarn messages back to the parent job. All child job outputs use the same standard tLogCatcher schema.

However, when using a dynamic job, there is no advanced option to "Propagate the child job result to the output schema" like there is when using a static child job. Therefore, I am not receiving any warnings out of the tRunJob component in my parent job. How can I propagate warnings to the parent job from a child job tLogCatcher when using a dynamic child job?

@Kelsey Scribner​ , it doesn't support to retrieve data from tBufferOutput when using a dynamic job, you will get the error as below:

when tRunJob runs in an independent process, it can't extract datas from tBufferOutput of child job.

As a workaround, use runIf connector to trigger different child job based on condition you define in advance. For example:

tJava1--runIf1--tRunJob1

--runIf2--tRunJob2
