• The JS7 - If Instruction is used to check the $returnValue return variable that carries
  • the value 0 if the query of the CheckHistoryJob template returns one or more hits.
  • the value 1 if the query of the CheckHistoryJob template returns no hits.
  • Alternative solutions include to check the value of the $js7CheckHistoryResult return variable for a Boolean value that indicates if the query did return any hits:
    • $js7CheckHistoryResult == true
    • $js7CheckHistoryResult == false
• The above example executes a successor job based on the result of the CheckHistoryJob. Such jobs have access to any Return Variables:
  • If the successor job is a Shell job then
    • Return Variables can be mapped to environment variables like this:
      
      
      
      
    • the job script can make use of environment variables like this:
      
      
      
      
  • If the successor job is a JVM job then Return Variables can be accessed directly.
