The state valid for a job chain node.

The name of the job to be called when an order reaches the state specified.

This attribute should not be specified for the end state.

<job_chain_node state="1" job="my_job"/>

<job_chain_node state="2" job="../job_in_parent_folder"/>

An order is given the next state when the returns return true for the order.

The default setting is the state= attribute of the following <job_chain_node>.

When return false is returned by a job's method, then the order state is changed to error.

Delays an order before handing it over to a job.

After an order processing step, which the order designates as containing an error, the JobScheduler normally allocates the order the error_state state. The on_error attribute can, however, be used to define another behaviour.

on_error="suspend" has the same effect as =true: the JobScheduler leaves the order in its current state, however, the next processing step is not carried out and the order is suspended.

on_error="setback" has the same effect as : the JobScheduler leaves the order in its current state, the next processing step is not carried out and the order is treated in the same way as .

Adds a new job chain node to a job chain (see the class).

The XML elements

<job_chain_node state="STATE"       job="JOB" next_state="NEXT_STATE" error_state="ERROR_STATE"/>
<job_chain_node state="ERROR_STATE" />

correspond to the following API calls

job_chain.add_job( "JOB", "STATE", "NEXT_STATE", "ERROR_STATE" );
job_chain.add_end_state( "ERROR_STATE" );
