parallel routine

Post by kavuri »

Hi,
I studied thata we can write C++ routines and can be called from Transformer stage in server jobs. I think we can also call routines in parallel jobs also. I had created a parallel job and called a C++ routine from transformer stage in parallel job. When I went for an interview they are arguing we cannot use routines in parallel jobs. How far it is correct? Can any body explain me in detail.

Thanks

You certainly can. I have personally written many px routines and called it from within the px transformer. Your interviewer might not be aware of the fact that parallel routines can be written. You should have told him/her to open the transformer and check out the option to create a px routine.
