specifies a job which must be executed asynchronously
Instead of XJob the implementation of this interface
must be aware, that execution can be made real asynchronous (e.g. by using
threads). Because the environment whish to have creation and using of threads
under control, it's not allowed for a real job implementation to use such mechanism
by itself. The outside code decide, if it's possible and how it can be made
asynchronous. In some special cases it can be, that asynchronous jobs will be executed
synchronously.
are arguments for executing the job. Their semantics is completely implementation dependent. Usually,
a concrete implementation of a job specifies in its service descriptions which parameters are allowed
(or expected). This values are persistent by the configuration of the JobExecutor
which use this asynchronous job. It's possible to write it back by called listener
function XJobListener::jobFinished().
Parameter Listener
specifies a listener which should be notified on events. May be NULL.
Throws
com::sun::star::lang::IllegalArgumentException
if some of given arguments doesn't fill out the service specification or
was corrupt so the service couldn't work correctly
