Using C++ custom applications in DataStage: Tips needed

[denzilsyb]

The main area where I have heard of C++ being used is in creating custom GUIs for plug-in stages. For more information on this, see the Plug-In Stage Writer's Guide.

I know this is an old entry and I had read before that one would need to contact Ascential to get hold of the plug-in writers guide. Having done this and having no luck , I was hoping someone could point me to the right people/person to get my hands on this guide.

thanks

You could contact your local Ascential support team and ask them to send it to you, if you have a serial number you can get a login to the e.services web site and see if it is available for download under production documentation.

On an offnote, I love using "CustomOPS" and "BuildOPS", and watch everyone else sputter and stumble on the difference between the two.

Co-worker: "So you can compile the CustomOPS in DataStage?"

Me: "No, but you can generate BuildOPS."

Co-worker: "But you have the source code for BuildOPS outside DataStage?"

Me: "Sorta, yes -- only available after you generate it. But we do build our own source for CustomOPS..."

Co-worker: *sputtering nonsense*

You've been quiet for a while.

How come you didn't use Scott Adams's spelling - "coworker" ?

Awhile? Pushing two years gone... really expect an answer?
