How to write new stage?

[xjonny]

Hello all!

How can I write a new stage? Does anybody have a full manual for this purpose? How to create interface for it and so on... I didn't find anything interesting in preinstalled docs.

If you have any ideas (or better examples), please, help me.

Thanks in advance.
To avoid additional questions: yes, I need a new stage, not function.

What does your new stage try to accomplish?

If you are trying to figure out on how to get started on building new stages, then start by right clicking on the "Stage Types" category and go to "New" ---> "Other" and select the type of stage (BuildOp, CustomOp or Wrapped).

Chapter 5 of the Parallel Job Advanced Developer's Guide is titled "Specifying Your Own Parallel Stages" and is, therefore, the reference for these three stage types.

Thanks all! I'll try.
I wanted to add ELT (aka SQL transformation) functionality without splitting job into many.

If I find any "specials" - will post later.
