JTOOLS BATCH PROCESSOR


JTools Table of Contents


Project Location: \JTools_BatchProcessor

Because of the in-depth historical files NxCore provides, there are several times when the developer may want to run an application over many tapes. Possibly for analysis, possibly to populate historical databases.

The Batch Processor application is a very simple modification of the Generic Shell App. It takes a start date, stop date (and a few other parameters) and processes through the dates, stopping only when the last historical file has been processed. With very little effort, any one of the appropriate JTools applications could be modified to batch process historical files using the code provided with the Batch Processor application.



The Main Application Window:



  • Start Date - Date of the first historical file to be processed.

  • Stop Date - Date of the last historical file to be processed.

  • Tape Set - The NxCore 2 or 3 letter tape set code.

  • Tape Path - Path to the historical tapes.

  • Process Weekends - Process data for weekends toggle.

  • Continue on Errors - If checked and an error occurs (such as a missing file in the sequence) processing will continue with the next file. If unchecked processing will stop on the first error encountered.
