Custom Build & Wrapper stage

Hi,
I need to come up with a couple of Build stages for certain complex functionality in PX. Is there any help on the language & functions that can be used for building this stage? e.g APT_DATE::daysInYear(<year>)
Also what is the basic difference between Custom, Build & Wrapper stages?
Regards,
NV

For the difference between the three take a look at the Parallel Job Advanced Developers Guide, Section 'Specifying Your Own Parallel Stages' on page 5-1
As far as help with the language goes I don't think the classes are documented anywhere except in their own header files.
There is of course plenty of information about C++ in general on the web.

Hi thompsonp,
Thanks for ur prompt response.The advanced guide does list all the header file names.
Where on the DS server (path) can I find these Header files to be able to have a look at them, if I can!

On Unix, your user profile should include a variable called APT_ORCHHOME that is the base directory where the PXEngine resides. You should be able to find your header files in :
$APT_ORCHHOME/include/apt_util
For example, on our system it is something like this:
APT_ORCHHOME = /apps/Ascential/DataStage/PXEngine/
and the include files are in:
Code: Select all
[bradsid@myserver 14568]: cd $APT_ORCHHOME
[bradsid@myserver 14569]: ls include/apt_util
archive.h custreport.h field_traversal.h iostream_s.h msg_exception.h status.h
argvcheck.h date.h fileset.h isdynamic.h null.h string.h
assert.h decimal.h fmtable.h keygroup.h parse_err.h strstream_s.h
bad_alloc.h endian.h fstream_s.h keylookup.h persist.h time.h
basicstring.h env_flag.h hash.h locale.h proplist.h unicode_utils.h
bool.h errind.h hostfilename.h locator.h random.h ustring.h
cdebug.h errlog.h identifier.h logmsg.h random64.h varargs-array.h
condition.h errorconfig.h int53.h lookupops.h resbund.h
converter.h exception.h ints.h lookuptable.h rtti.h
converter_registry.h fast_alloc.h iosfwd_s.h message.h sstring.h
[bradsid@myserver 14570]:
Hope this helps,
Brad.

14560 of those items are typing the "ps" command.
