AGSGeoprocessingJob Class Reference

Description

A job to execute tasks on an ArcGIS Geoprocessing service.

Instances of this class represent a job on a remote server that executes the workflow defined by an ArcGIS Geoprocessing service. A job is initiated when it is submitted to the server using startWithStatusHandler:completion: (AGSJob).

When the server accepts the job, it assigns a unique ID to the job which is avialable in AGSJob::serverJobID. The client then periodically polls for the status of the job on the server and provides this information in the status handler. If the job completes successfully, the result of the job is provided in the completion handler, otherwise an error is provided when the job fails.

Method Documentation

◆ cancel

- (BOOL) cancel

Cancels the job. Returns a value indicating whether the job was successfully canceled.

Since
100
Deprecated:
100.1. Replaced by cancelWithCompletion:.

Provided by category AGSJob(AGSDeprecated).

◆ cancelWithCompletion:

- (id<AGSCancelable>) cancelWithCompletion: (void(^)(NSError *_Nullable error))  completion

Cancels this AGSJob and waits for any asynchronous, server-side operations to be canceled.

The job is canceled and will result in an AGSJobStatusFailed status after all cancellation tasks have completed. For jobs running on a server, a cancel request is sent for the associated AGSJob::serverJobID. You should always cancel unneeded jobs (for example when exiting your app) to avoid placing unnecessary load on the server. Examples of server-side jobs include:

In addition, the AGSGenerateOfflineMapJob is composed of several server-side jobs, depending on the types of layers in your AGSMap. Canceling this high-level job will also send a cancel request to the underlying server jobs.

Upon calling this method, the AGSJob::status is immediately set to AGSJobStatusCanceling.

Parameters
completionA block that is invoked when the operation completes successfully or encounters an error.
Returns
An operation which can be canceled.
Since
100.14

◆ checkStatusWithCompletion:

- (id<AGSCancelable>) checkStatusWithCompletion: (void(^)(NSError *__nullable error))  completion

Force status check. This method can be called from UIApplication::application:performFetchWithCompletionHandler:.

Since
100.0

◆ fromJSON:error:

+ (nullable id<AGSJSONSerializable>) fromJSON: (id)  JSONObject
error: (NSError **)  error 
staticrequiredinherited

Initializes and returns an object from its JSON representation.

Parameters
JSONObjectNSDictionary or NSArray containing the JSON.
errorencountered during the operation, if any.
Since
100

◆ pause

- (BOOL) pause

Pauses the job. Returns a value indicating whether the job was successfully paused.

Since
100
Deprecated:
100.1. Please use the pause method through the NSProgress API (exposed via NSProgressReporting through the progress property).

Provided by category AGSJob(AGSDeprecated).

◆ startWithStatusHandler:completion: [1/2]

- (void) startWithStatusHandler: (nullable void(^)(AGSJobStatus status))  statusHandler
completion: (void(^)(AGSGeoprocessingResult *__nullable result, NSError *__nullable error))  completion 

Start the job by submitting it to the server

Parameters
statusHandleris invoked periodically whenever the job's status changes
completionblock that is invoked with the result when the job succeeds, or an error if it fails
Since
100

◆ startWithStatusHandler:completion: [2/2]

- (void) startWithStatusHandler: (nullable void(^)(AGSJobStatus status))  statusHandler
completion: (void(^)(id __nullable result, NSError *__nullable error))  completion 

◆ toJSON:

- (nullable id) toJSON: (NSError **)  error
requiredinherited

Returns JSON representation for this object.

Parameters
errorencountered during the operation, if any.
Returns
NSDictionary or NSArray containing the JSON.
Since
100

Reimplemented in AGSPortalItem.

◆ credential

- (AGSCredential*) credential
readwritenonatomicstronginherited

Security credentials to access the remote resource. Only applicable if the resource is secured.

Since

◆ error

- (NSError*) error
readnonatomicstronginherited

Error encountered during job execution, if any.

Since
100

◆ jobType

- (AGSJobType) jobType
readnonatomicassigninherited

The type of job

Since

◆ messages

- (NSArray<AGSJobMessage*>*) messages

The parameters that were passed to this job when it was created using geoprocessingJobWithParameters: (AGSGeoprocessingTask)

Since
100.1

◆ progress

- (NSProgress*) progress
readnonatomicstronginherited

The progress for this job. As a consumer of this progress property, you can observe it's property changes and pause, cancel, resume. Do not, however, set the readwrite properties of this progress object. Those are reserved for internal use. Setting them externally will corrupt the state and lead to undefined behavior.

Since
100.1

◆ requestConfiguration
