4.2.12 Judge returncode plug-in

Function

This plug-in allows you to select which step to execute next based on the return code of the preceding step.

A judge returncode plug-in connects to two branch destination steps: A succeeding step, and a step that is only executed when the judgment conditions is met. If the return code matches the judgment condition, JP1/AO executes the branch destination step and the succeeding step, in that order. If the return code does not match the judgment conditions, JP1/AO executes the succeeding step only.

By using this plug-in together with a test value plug-in, you can select the steps in a flow based on a character string.

Cautionary notes

When a task is stopped or forcibly terminated during plug-in execution, the task enters Completed status after the judge returncode plug-in finishes processing.
You cannot change the property values when you execute the service. Set the values when you create the flow.
You can only specify literal characters in input properties. You cannot map the value of a service property or reserved property.
If the judge returncode plug-in stops processing, use the hcmdsgetlogs command to acquire log information and identify the problem.

Return code	Description
0 or higher	The plug-in ended normally. The return code of the preceding step of the judge returncode plug-in is set as the return code.

Property list

The following table describes the properties.

Property key	Property name	Description	Default value	I/O type	Required
`condition`	Condition	Specify the judgment condition for the return code of the preceding step. You can choose from the following conditions: ReturnCode=value1 The return code is equal to Value1. ReturnCode!=value1 The return code is not equal to Value1. ReturnCode<value1 The return code is less than Value1. ReturnCode>value1 The return code is greater than Value1. ReturnCode<=value1 The return code is less than or equal to Value1. ReturnCode>=value1 The return code is greater than or equal to Value1. ReturnCode>value1 AND ReturnCode<value2 The return code is greater than Value1 and less than Value2. ReturnCode>=value1 AND ReturnCode<value2 The return code is greater than or equal to Value1, and less than Value2. ReturnCode>value1 AND ReturnCode<=value2 The return code is greater than Value1, and less than or equal to Value2. ReturnCode>=value1 AND ReturnCode<=value2 The return code is greater than or equal to Value1, and less than or equal to Value2. ReturnCode<value1 OR ReturnCode>value2 The return code is less than Value1, or greater than Value2. ReturnCode<=value1 OR ReturnCode>value2 The return code is less than or equal to Value1, or greater than Value2. ReturnCode<value1 OR ReturnCode>=value2 The return code is less than Value1, or greater than or equal to Value2. ReturnCode<=value1 OR ReturnCode>=value2 The return code is less than or equal to Value1, or greater than or equal to Value2.	ReturnCode=value1	Input	R
`value1`	Value1	Specify a numerical value against which to judge the return code, within the range from 0 to 999. The value is mapped to `value1` in the `condition` property.	0	Input	R
`value2`	Value2	Specify a numerical value against which to judge the return code, within the range from 0 to 999. The value is mapped to `value2` in the `condition` property. This value takes effect when `value2` is included in a `condition` property.	0	Input	O

Condition

Specify the judgment condition for the return code of the preceding step. You can choose from the following conditions:

ReturnCode=value1

The return code is equal to Value1.
ReturnCode!=value1

The return code is not equal to Value1.
ReturnCode<value1

The return code is less than Value1.
ReturnCode>value1

The return code is greater than Value1.
ReturnCode<=value1

The return code is less than or equal to Value1.
ReturnCode>=value1

The return code is greater than or equal to Value1.
ReturnCode>value1 AND ReturnCode<value2

The return code is greater than Value1 and less than Value2.
ReturnCode>=value1 AND ReturnCode<value2

The return code is greater than or equal to Value1, and less than Value2.
ReturnCode>value1 AND ReturnCode<=value2

The return code is greater than Value1, and less than or equal to Value2.
ReturnCode>=value1 AND ReturnCode<=value2

The return code is greater than or equal to Value1, and less than or equal to Value2.
ReturnCode<value1 OR ReturnCode>value2

The return code is less than Value1, or greater than Value2.
ReturnCode<=value1 OR ReturnCode>value2

The return code is less than or equal to Value1, or greater than Value2.
ReturnCode<value1 OR ReturnCode>=value2

The return code is less than Value1, or greater than or equal to Value2.
ReturnCode<=value1 OR ReturnCode>=value2

The return code is less than or equal to Value1, or greater than or equal to Value2.

ReturnCode=value1

Input

value1

Value1

Specify a numerical value against which to judge the return code, within the range from 0 to 999.

The value is mapped to value1 in the condition property.

Input

value2

Value2

Specify a numerical value against which to judge the return code, within the range from 0 to 999.

The value is mapped to value2 in the condition property. This value takes effect when value2 is included in a condition property.

Input

Example of property specification

A judge returncode plug-in determines whether the return code is within a specified range of values.

The following describes the range of valid judgment values, using the following values of the condition, value1, and value2 properties as examples.

A. The return code is 25 or greater and less than 75

condition (Condition): ReturnCode>=value1 AND ReturnCode<value2

value1 (Value1): 25

value2 (Value2): 75

B. The return code is less than 25, or 75 or higher

condition (Condition): ReturnCode<value1 ORReturnCode>=value2

value1 (Value1): 25

value2 (Value2): 75

The following figure shows the range of return codes that match each judgment condition.
