Displaying a Job Log

Procedure

Use function module BP_JOBLOG_SHOW to display a job log to a user.

BP_JOBLOG_SHOW cannot usually be part of the same program that you used to schedule a job, since the job log is complete only when the job has been completed.

However, you could offer display of a job log as a separate function to your users.

Note Note

You will need the job name and ID number to identify the job log. You must either:

save these specifications yourself when you schedule a job
or use BP_JOB_SELECT to find and select from jobs.

End of the note.
