Hi there,
With a JobChangeListener i'm able to listen to the status of a single Job.
But how can i listen to status of a set of jobs (job family).

Just register as a listener (IJobChangeListener) at the IJobManager and
filter yourself:

The event (IJobChangeEvent) returns the Job and you can check this
instance via the method belongsTo for a family association.

Btw.: You can get the IJobManager via the static method
Job.getJobManager().

that way i also get the status of a single job (within a job family). but i want to be notified when all the jobs of a family are done.
I grouped the jobs with setProgressGroup() to an IProgressMonitor. I didn't find out how to listen to its "done" event.
any ideas?

You have to manage that on your own. The spec of belongsTo clearly
documents the following:

"[..] Job families are represented as objects that are not interpreted
or specified in any way by the job manager. Thus, a job can choose to
belong to any number of families. [..]"

This makes it clear that the job manager cannot do that for you.
It should be rather easy to implement that on you own: Create a Set
that contains all of your started jobs that belong to the family
you are interested in. Since you must already provide glue-code
to properly implement belongsTo, this is already work that would
belong to the responsibilities of the proper belongsTo implementation.

Then register as filtered listener as described in my first reply.
If the filter matches and belongsTo return true, ensure that
you remove the corresponding entry from your set. Finally there will
be some done event, where you have removed the last element from
this Set and isEmpty returns true after the removal. This is the
event you are interested in.

Should that be unclear: I mean here that there must exist your
own business logic that decides what belongsTo means. The same
business logic should probably administrate the Set of jobs,
I referred to in the text.

... in the done event, of-course.

Hi Daniel,
thanks for you help. I think i did it as you mentioned, it works!

- I added the Jobs to the corresponding family ("myFamily").

- In the Job.addJobChangeListener "done" event i reset the corresponding family (set to "").

- In the IJobManager.addJobChangeListener "done" event i check if there are still Jobs belonging to "myFamily". If not, all the jobs are done.

Yes, this is a nice alternative solution!
