Hi

I need a simple parallel routine to be wriiten and be called in a tranformer .

Please share your valuable experiences .

PLAN what you need to do. Write it out in ordinary language.

Convert this to pseudo-code, so you get the logic right.

Consult the Parallel Job Developer's Guide, particularly Chapters 15 and 54, for information on how to implement. Within Chapter 15 is a section on the Expression Editor, which (among other things) indicates how to invoke a user-defined function within an expression.

Then create your Routine, or BuildOp, or other mechanism.

I dont think u can call a routine in a Px job transformer.
We can do the same in server.
One thing you can do is move the values in the routine to stage variable and use them in Xmer

In PX 7.x there is a new stage type called a BASIC Transformer stage, from which it IS possible to call a Routine.
(I note that the OP specified 6.x.)

You can write PX Routines (using C/Cpp) which can be used in the PX Transformer. These are not the same as Server Routines (using Universe Basic).

Ray,

Thanks a lot for the info. I was not aware of it. I had been using C object code as routine and calling them from the Parallel Extender. With this additional info, we definitely have more choice in calling routines from parallel extender.
