[resolved] Concurrent Subjob execution.

[sammierlening]

Is it possible to call a Subjob over a iterate connection and not wait for sequential execution completion?
Lets say I have a folder with 10 files. I would like to process 4 files concurrently, passing each filename to a subjob for processing. Currently, 1 file name is passed to the subjob, when that subjob is complete, the next filename is passed. What I would like if for each filename to be passed to a subjob, the subjobs to execute concurrently, and once all 4 are finished, the next batch of four filenames are passed to subjobs.

I would recommend you to have four subjobs which are running parallely as independent process in main job...
Inside your subjobs, once the file is processed, move to archive folder and it would do what you are expecting..

sanvaibhav, I use a tjava component coming out of the first tFileList iterate to determine which batch a file should process in. I map that value to the globalMap. Then I use a tLoop to loop each batch from 1 to the max batch number in the globalMap. Finally, I use a second tFileList to iterate each file in each batch. I changed the iterate link to "Enable parallel execution". Each filepath is passed to a subjob for each file in each batch.
