How do you pass a job parameter to a buildop

[wfis]

Hi All,

I would like to know how do you pass a job parameter to a buildop. Like the way we pass it to a transformer stage.

This job parameter in turn is passed by a script that calls this datastage job.

Thank you

I have never created one, but have read something about it. May be defining a Property for build op and then setting this property to job parameter should solve your problem.

You can pass it as its property variables.

you cannot pass job parameter to buildop.........its a pure c++ code.......

It is possible. Period.

Define a property variable and pass to it.

How to pass it. I tried doing in the properties tab. Please elobrate.

[Sainath.Srinivasan]

Check the "Properties" tab and define a new parameter.

First, I will suggest getting the buildop working.

Buildop is working fine. I need to pass a parameter to it.

Create a property (similar to parameters) and use it in your code.

When you use the build-op in your job, you will be able to pass the value as you do for any normal stage.

in the parameters page give the property name and prompt ,.. and the key here is to select one from conversion property. Select -NameValue and you will be able to use the parameter name in the per-record logic as a normal C variable
