passing context value from route to cTalendjob

[nmodi]

How can i pass context values from my route to talend job?

I receive file on FTP as input & based on file name, I have to generate my output file name, location & other parameter dynamically. how can I pass those to my talend job that can accept that as context value.

I am able to update values using cProcessor however when I pass value as above, It still doesn't passed onto my job. 

I tried all 3 option - Use selected context, Use route context, Use Job context.

interesting thing is that if I put some static value in context as below, value get passed fine.

@Moe,can you try with Use Route Context?

Yes I tried but context values doesn't get passed, if I allocate static values to context values, it does get passed.

Hi, stock the context value in a globalVar then call it in the values field.
