Batchlet (Java EE 8)

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractBatchlet

- Method Detail
  - process
```
java.lang.String process()
                  throws java.lang.Exception
```
    The process method does the work of the batchlet. If this method throws an exception, the batchlet step ends with a batch status of FAILED.
    
    Returns:
    
    exit status string
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.Exception - if an error occurs.
  - stop
```
void stop()
   throws java.lang.Exception
```
    The stop method is invoked by the batch runtime as part of JobOperator.stop() method processing. This method is invoked on a thread other than the thread on which the batchlet process method is running.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.Exception - if an error occurs.
