Method Detail

getVersion

int getVersion()

Returns the version number of the task compiler that compiled the task most recently. If the version number of the current compiler does not match the number returned by this method, the compiler will recompile the task.

Returns:

The version number of the compiler that compiled the task most recently.

initialize

void initialize()
                throws IEException

Initializes the tasklet.

Throws:

IEException - if the tasklet is not initialized successfully.

invoke

void invoke()
            throws IEException,
                   java.io.IOException

Executes the tasklet.

Throws:

IEException - if the tasklet is not executed successfully.

setCheckpointProcessor

void setCheckpointProcessor(java.lang.String uniqueIdentifier,
                            com.infoengine.SAK.CheckpointProcessor checkpointProcessor)

Sets the checkpoint processor associated with the tasklet. The checkpoint processor is an object that is responsible for saving the state of the tasklet such that it can be restored to restart the tasklet after its execution is interrupted for some reason. Normally, this method is called by a task processor service that implements guaranteed task execution.

Parameters:

uniqueIdentifier - The unique identifier assigned to the tasklet instance. This will be passed to the checkpoint processor object to aid it in associating saved state with a specific tasklet instance over time.

checkpointProcessor - The object that can be called to save a tasklet's state. If null, state information will not be saved for the tasklet.

write

void write(java.lang.String s)
           throws java.io.IOException

Writes a string to the output stream associated with this tasklet. The string is written using the default character encoding.

Parameters:

s - The string to write.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
