Yes, a PROCESS START WAIT request that starts the command successfully
returns the return code of the command being run in the result. For
example, if myscript.py returns 99:
# Contents of /tests/myscript.py
import sys
sys.exit(99)
STAF local PROCESS START SHELL COMMAND "/tests/myscript.py" WAIT
Response
--------
{
Return Code: 99
Key : <None>
Files : []
}
You can also return output that the command writes to stdout/stderr. For
example:
# Contents of /tests/myscript.py
import sys
print "Get an error"
sys.exit(99)
STAF local PROCESS START SHELL COMMAND "/tests/myscript.py" WAIT
RETURNSTDOUT STDERRTOSTDOUT
Response
--------
{
Return Code: 99
Key : <None>
Files : [
{
Return Code: 0
Data : Got an error
}
]
}
This is documented in the STAF User's Guide in section "8.12 Process
Service, sub-section "8.12.2 START", sub-section "Results" at
http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAFUG.htm#HDRPROCSRV. It says:
If the WAIT option is specified and the submit call does not timeout, the
result buffer will contain a marshalled
<Map:STAF/Service/Process/CompletionInfo> which represents the completion
information for the process, including the return code from the process,
the KEY (if one was specified with the NOTIFY ONEND option), as well as
any files specified by RETURNSTDOUT, RETURNSTDERR, and/or RETURNFILE.
The maps are defined as follows:
Table 61. Definition of map class STAF/Service/Process/CompletionInfo
Description: This map class represents completion information for a
process.
Key Name
Display Name
Type
Format / Value
rc
Return Code
<String>
key
Key
<String> | <None>
fileList
Files
<List> of <Map:STAF/Service/Process/ReturnFileInfo>
Notes: The "Files" value will contain a list of information about the
files requested to be returned, or an empty list if no files were
requested to be returned. Files will be returned in the order of standard
output, then standard error, then any files specified with the RETURNFILE
option.

Hi,
Is there a way to get the exit / return code of a process (which is some
script) started with PROCESS service?
For example:
staf local process start shell command "myScript.py" wait
