Global Variables

ERROR_MESSAGE: the error message generated by the
component when an error occurs. This is an After variable and it returns a string. This
variable functions only if the Die on error check box is
cleared, if the component has this check box.

NB_LINE: the number of rows read by an input component or
transferred to an output component. This is an After variable and it returns an
integer.

A Flow variable functions during the execution of a component while an After variable
functions after the execution of the component.

To fill up a field or expression with a variable, press Ctrl +
Space to access the variable list and choose the variable to use from it.

For further information about variables, see
Talend Studio

User Guide.

Usage rule

This component must be linked to an input or intermediary
component.

Dynamic settings

Click the [+] button to add a
row in the table and fill the Code
field with a context variable to choose your MQ Server connection
dynamically from multiple connections planned in your Job.

The Dynamic settings table is
available only when the Use an existing
connection check box is selected in the Basic settings view. Once a dynamic parameter is
defined, the Component List box in the
Basic settings view becomes unusable.

For examples on using dynamic parameters, see Scenario: Reading data from databases through context-based dynamic connections and Scenario: Reading data from different MySQL databases using dynamically loaded connection parameters. For more information on Dynamic
settings and context variables, see
Talend Studio User Guide.

Limitation

Make sure the relevant Websphere MQ, JBoss Messaging or ActiveMQ
server is launched.

This component requires installation of its related jar files.
