Transfer information from one job to another

[Alpha549]

Hello everybody,

Let's imagine that I have several jobs in a hierarchy. I have a main job which calls child jobs.

I would like to get different behaviors in child jobs, so I have to transfer information from the main job to child jobs.

I thought about transferring context from father job to child jobs using tRunJob.

However, I would like to be able to modify the context during the execution of the main job (to transfer correct information to child jobs).

Is is possible to modify the context ? Maybe in a tJavaRow ? I don't know.

Hi,

If you want to modify the context, you can do it but it will be your responsibility to give a triggering or to create an event driving mechanism using a Joblet or some other method. For example, if you want to change the context from A to B, then you will have to pass the value B to the child job. 

So indirectly, you are passing the context through one variable which in turn is calling your context load joblet.

Warm Regards,
