getProperties

Properties getProperties()

The getProperties method returns the job level properties specified in a job definition.

A couple of notes:

• There is no guarantee that the same Properties object instance is always returned in the same (job) scope.
• Besides the properties which are defined in JSL within a child <properties> element of a <job> element, the batch runtime implementation may choose to include additional, implementation-defined properties.

Returns:

job level properties

The getBatchStatus method simply returns the batch status value set by the batch runtime into the job context.

Returns:

batch status string

setExitStatus

void setExitStatus(String status)

The setExitStatus method assigns the user-specified exit status for the current job. When the job ends, the exit status of the job is the value specified through setExitStatus. If setExitStatus was not called or was called with a null value, then the exit status defaults to the batch status of the job.

Parameters:

status - exit status string
