Hi,

I am currently executing a DMF project from my code with:

DMFQuickImportExport::doPGImport(defintionGroup, executionId, true);

This works great, but it runs synchronous. I want to run it in batch mode. I tried the following (DMFBatchImporter):

 public void runInBatchMode(DMFExecutionId executionId, str definitionGroup)
    {
        BatchHeader           batchHeader;
        BatchInfo             localBatchInfo;
        DMFBatchImporter importAsBatch = new DMFBatchImporter();
        importAsBatch.parmExecutionId(executionId);
        importAsBatch.parmReadyForBatchRun(true);
        SysRecurrenceData     sysRecurrenceData = SysRecurrence::defaultRecurrence();
        sysRecurrenceData = SysRecurrence::setRecurrenceEndAfter(sysRecurrenceData, 1);

        localBatchInfo = importAsBatch.batchinfo();
        localBatchInfo.parmGroupId(definitionGroup);
        batchHeader = batchHeader::construct();
        batchHeader.addTask(importAsBatch);
        batchHeader.parmRecurrenceData(sysRecurrenceData);

        batchHeader.save();
        info("Batch job created");

    }

The batch job kicks off, but never finishes. The data is stuck in Pending status:

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Hi PhillyNJ,

Regarding this DMFBatchImporter class, I think there are many examples in AOT that you can refer to that call some known functions. And have you debugged your code yet?

What is the status of the batch job itself?

Judy,

Thank you!. I did search the AOT, but your suggestion put me on the right path.

Here is the solution:

DMFDefinitionGroup defGroup = DMFDefinitionGroup::find(defintionGroup, true); WSTG_Helpers::StartImportInBatch(defGroup, executionId);

public static void StartImportInBatch(DMFDefinitionGroup _definitionGroup, DMFExecutionId executionId) { DMFBatchImporter batchImporter = new DMFBatchImporter(); batchImporter.batchInfo().parmBatchExecute(NoYes::Yes); batchImporter.parmReadyForBatchRun(true); DMFExecutionId xexecutionId = DMFPackageImporter::PrepareDefinitionGroupForImport(_definitionGroup.DefinitionGroupName, executionId, curExt(), true); batchImporter.parmExecutionId(xexecutionId); batchImporter.saveLast(); batchImporter.batchInfo().doBatch(); }
