Re: Can "ProgramCall going in MSGW" be detected?

I think you would have to create a thread to monitor the job but it wouldn't be too difficult, and the thread could fire PropertyChangeEvents to monitor/listen for. Would this do what you need?

ProgramCall.getServerJob() returns the Job object which will execute the ProgramCall.run().

So if the program called by ProgramCall goes into message wait, the server job will be in message wait, right?

Put PropertyChangeSupport into the thread you are considering building. Put a shutdown() method in it. Instantiate the thread with the Job object returned by ProgramCall.getServerJob().

run() method of thread periodically checks the status of the Job passed to it when initiated. If status of job is MSGW it fires a PropertyChangeEvent.

After ProgramCall.run() returns call the shutdown method of the thread. If listener get MSGW event call the shutdown method of the thread.

Would that do it?

This is very close to what I would do, so it sounds like a reasonable approach.

I was just hoping for some notification mechanism, but it appears not to be or BVS would not have a product (which I'll keep in mind, but goes outside my domain).

Thanks for all responses.
