Creating the Hello Job Definition
Scope
In this section you will write the definition of a job that handles parameters and logs messages in the database. You will develop the job in three phases:
...
1. In a message-driven bean (MDB) class, you code a simple job definition that logs a Hello message.
2. You extend the definition by setting two parameters to the job: a parameter for string input whose length the job calculates, and a parameter for the job’s output with which the job logs the result of the calculation.
3. You set the correct content of the MDB deployment descriptors and create a job-definition.xml descriptor.
Result
At the end, you will have created and deployed the definition for a job that logs the messages: Hello John and The length of your name 4 characters.
