If you want a STAX job's result to be set to a message then you need to
return that message from the STAX job's main function using the <return>
element.
For example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE stax SYSTEM "stax.dtd">
<stax>
<defaultcall function="test"/>
<function name="test">
<sequence>
<script>command = 'ls /'</script>
<!-- Run a command (e.g. "ls /")and return its stdout/stderr -->
<process>
<location>'local'</location>
<command mode="'shell'">command</command>
<stderr mode="'stdout'"/>
<returnstdout/>
</process>
<if expr="RC == 0">
<script>lsOutput = 'Output from "%s" command:\n%s' % (command,
STAXResult[0][1])</script>
<else>
<script>
lsOutput = '"%s" failed with RC=%s, STAFResult=%s,
STAXResult=%s' % \
(command, RC, STAFResult, STAXResult)
</script>
</else>
</if>
<message log="1">lsOutput</message>
<!-- Get the current date-time -->
<script>
from time import localtime, strftime
currentTime = strftime("%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S", localtime())
</script>
<message log="1">'Current date-time: %s' % currentTime</message>
<!-- Create a result containing "Hello world", the current
date-time, and output from "ls /" command -->
<script>result = 'Hello world @ %s.\n%s' % (currentTime,
lsOutput)</script>
<!-- Log the result in the STAX Job User Log and send to the STAX
Monitor messages -->
<message log="1">result</message>
<!-- Return the result -->
<return>result</return>
</sequence>
</function>
</stax>
You can submit a STAX EXECUTE request to run this STAX job and wait for it
to complete and return its job result as follows:
# STAF local STAX EXECUTE FILE C:/stax/returnJobResult.xml WAIT
RETURNRESULT DETAILS
Response
