[resolved] Passing variable (context) value from the command line

[Anonymous]

Is it possible to define variable context value from the command line (by the script generated by the export job in TOS).
For example
java -Xms256M -Xmx1024M -cp ../lib/jtds-1.2.jar;../lib/systemRoutines.jar;../lib/userRoutines.jar;.;myjob.jar;../lib; myproject.myjob.MYJOB --context=PROD
--myvariable='TEST'

hello
yes it is.
Here is an example (with Perl, but Java should be OK) I inserted in a bat file:
"perl" -I"lib" "NPLMATCH%1.job_Jnplmatch.pl" --context=Default --context_param rootDir=%%1 --context_param user=%%2 --context_param password=%%3 --context_param mode=%%4 --context_param backup=%%5 overloads $_context{rootDir} and $_context{user} and $_context{password} and $_context{mode} and $_context{backup}

Hello,
I confirm : it's the same in Java.

Very good and thanks for your answers.
It would be a good idea to add all these options in the documentation, I don't find them.

What is exactly overloads in your example ?
Is it a reserved keywords or just a data ?

Another example in java:

--context_param:params_file=/home/stephane/blog/articleContexts/execution/params_prod.csv

The ':' between context_param and params_file is due to a bug in 2.2.1 (don't know if we still have the bug)
Note that any key can be used instead of ':'

Hi all!
I have a main job with subjobs (in java with TOS 2.4.1).
One of my subjob read a file.
I want my batch to take in its parameters in the command line the path of this file.
I have in the context of my subjob a context variable for this file and in my command line I've added --context_param file="c:\toto.txt".
But it doesn't work.
Any ideas?

Java uses / instead of \
\ is a string escape character which can produce strange effects.
Can you try with --context_param file="c:/toto.txt" and see if it works?

Thanks but it's not the problem.
The context param is not loaded, I've try with --context_param file="toto.txt" ...
