RE: Detecting Job/Subsystem Termination

Phil,

No I haven't.  I previously searched the archives and all the
recommendations I saw recommended checking the job status via RTVJOBA or
the retrieve job API.  My daemon is calling a CL program in a loop.  The
CL is receiving a data queue entry with a wait time of 30 seconds.  I just
made the CL use RTVJOBA to get the job status and return it along with any
data queue entries.  If the status is '1', then the Java job terminates.

I am not sure how the addshutdownHook would play into this.  Presumably I
could use it to set some boolean in my class that I checked when control
came back from the program call and just do the same thing?

Do you have any examples?

Thanks

Mark

Have you tried using the addShutdownHook method of the Runtime class to
detect when the JVM is being terminated ?
