19.5 Process Control File (PCF)
PID USER PASSWORD PARAM1 PARAM2 PARAM3 PARAM4 PARAM5 PARAM6 ...

200 SKIP
The action NEXTJOB allows to change the sequence in which the scripts are executed. The
corresponding script must decide which script will be submitted next. Based on the residuals
obtained after a screening step, e.g., a script may decide whether or not an additional
screening step is necessary and may thus initiate a jump back to the first script of the
screening procedure.
We recommend to store the PIDs of possible targets into the fields “Next job PID” (which
correspond to script parameters PARAM2, PARAM3, etc., see Section 19.5.4). The second
section in the PCF may then look like:
PID USER PASSWORD PARAM1 PARAM2 PARAM3 PARAM4 PARAM5 PARAM6 ...
3** 12********** 8******* 8******* 8******* 8******* 8******* 8******* 8******* ...
114 NEXTJOB 100 100 120
The jump is achieved by calling the method RUNBPE::PRT GOTO pid in the BPE user
script, e.g., using the command “$bpe->PRT_GOTO($$bpe{PARAM2});” (see Section 19.6.5)
in the user script which writes a message to the script’s protocol file and initiates the jump.
The BPE variable “$$bpe{STARTCOUNT}” keeps track on the number a user script has been
started in the same BPE run as a consequence of backward jumps. In Section 19.6.3 an
example script is displayed and in Section 19.6.5.3 an example is given on how to use the
BPE utilities for writing user scripts performing jumps.
