Common Methods

All exits types provide a common set of control and metadata interrogation methods. Normally, these methods are placed into your exit code when the iIT or other wizard prepares your skeleton Java source code. Usually, you only modify the init() and execute() methods. The others are described here for completeness.

All exits descend from XDExitBase, providing them with common services such as parameter analysis, tracing, and so on. XDExitBase also provides empty versions of all required exit methods such as term(), eliminating the need for every exit to provide an implementation if the method is not needed for that exit().

Because all exits provide these methods, they are not further discussed in the sections dealing with individual exits.
