Promote Step ExitStatus to Job

[michael.lange]

Hello !

What is the preferred Way to promote a custom ExitStatus in a Step to the Job ?

Right now i use a JobExecutionListener to go through the StepExecutions and find custom ExitStati and create the new JobExecution.ExitStatus from it.

the setup i tried

    <job id="fahrzeugImportJob">
        <step id="checkJobParameters">
            <tasklet ref="checkJobParametersTasklet" />
        </step>
        <step id="step1">
            <tasklet ref="ftpLoadAndExtractTasklet" />
        </step>
        <listeners>
            <listener ref="testListener" />
        </listeners>
    </job>

• the first step-tasklet implements StepExecutionListener
• the first step-tasklet returns a custom ExitStatus("FOO") in afterStep()

if i do nothing in the testListener than the Job returns with

• JobExecution.BatchStatus - COMPLETED
• JobExecution.ExitStatus - COMPLETED

if i promote the ExitStatus from Step to Jobexecution (in testListener), the Job returns with

• JobExecution.BatchStatus - COMPLETED
• JobExecution.ExitStatus - FOO

is there a better way than the custom JobExecutionListener to promote Step-ExitStatus ?

it does work with custom fail conditions, that's somehow ok, but i can't promote the ExitStatus.description this way

anyways the problem is solved for me, i go with custom fail conditions
