Stopping jobs "via the database"

[dvb123]

The docs mention in section '2.4 Meta Data Access Improvements' that

"It is also worth noting that Jobs can now be stopped via the database..."

Having noted that - I'd be interested to know what it means. I mean understand - not assume.

However, this is what I assume. That one should update the database (via the JobRepository) using the JobOperator interface. I see JobOperator has a handy looking stop(executionId) method.

Also note the (Simple)JobService supports stop and stopAll calls.

I know it sounds obvious but just double checking that I've interpreted this correctly.

TIA,
David.

FWIW. I resolved this by using the SimpleJobService.

Your mileage may vary.
