tracing log from director using parallel routines

Post by Ush »

Hi

Please give me idea to develop parallel routines to trace log from director .I have developed routine in server.
Is there any better way to trace in EE.
Thanks

Access the metadata of jobs is identical for Server and Parallel jobs, so if you have it working in server BASIC code it will do so for both types of jobs.

I think code has to be in C++ if you are using the Parallel routine ..

The point is that the parallel API does nothing else but call the internal BASIC routines to get at the metadata, and since the original poster already has these coded there is no reason to re-code it into c++

Hi Ardw,

Are you saying that the person has a Server routine to extract the log, and this routine can be called in the parralel jobs ?

If so then please let me know how can you use it.

Thanks

Indirectly via an after-job subroutine. Better (in the sense of more easily maintained) would be via a Routine activity in the job sequence that invoked the parallel job.

Based on your other post, I'd suggest you come up with a detailed specification of what you wish to achieve first. Otherwise you and we will be wasting time.
