New NAS based job queue in 5.0

ta5

Where can I find info on the new nas based job queue? I have read something in the "Feature enhancement guide".

As far as I understand nas is started with the parameter JOBQUEUE. After that a single instance code unit is handling the entries in table "Job queue entry".

Somebody knows how the fields "Parameter String" and "Response Required" are used?

Thanks in advance

Response Required is not used anywhere. And Parameter String can be used by your codeunit. It's up to your codeunit to use it or not.

Remember all codeunits require the job queue as parameter for onrun trigger.

But how can I access to this Parameter String in my codeunit?

You codeunit will look like this.

Documentation()

OnRun(VAR Rec : Record "Job Queue Entry")


message("Parameter String");
//do stuff

Your codeunit onrun property will have a property called TableNo, you need to set that to Job Queue Entry

Another Question:

How do I use the XML Field (Blob) in table 472 Job Queue Entry ?

I heard you can put an xml script in there but i couldn`t find how this is supposed to be done...

Do we need to implement this function on ourselves?

Yes it looks like there is not manual way to insert the blob xml file.
