Defining POJO Jobs

You can define a POJO (POJO_JOB) job to create a Java object instance with no arguments, invoke a method on the object instance, and store the method's output.

Note: To run these jobs, your system requires the following agents:

• CA WA Agent for UNIX, Linux, or Windows
• CA WA Agent for Application Services or CA WA Agent for Web Services

Required Statements

To define a POJO job, you must specify the following statements:

• AGENT
• CLASSNAME
• METHOD

Optional Statements

You can specify the following optional statements for a POJO job:

• DESTINATION
• JOBCLASS
• PARAMETER
• USER

Example: Invoke a Method on a Java Object Instance

Suppose that you want to define a POJO job that creates a Java String with value "5" and calls the parseInt method with the created Java String object as an argument. The parseInt method returns a Java Integer object.

AGENT APPAGENT
CLASSNAME java.lang.Integer
METHOD parseInt
PARAMETER TYPE(java.lang.String) VALUE(5)
