Possibility to display Error status for manually started jobs directly in UI.

Like onStatusChanged but perhaps a red box displaying that something went wrong in the job.

Thanks Valdis, 
Not exactly what I was looking for. When manually executing a job, I would like to give the user a notification directly on the same view that something did not execute correctly. Like how onStatusChanged displays the status periodicly but as a separate box and in the end of the job, For Example: A line in an import did not get imported. then I want to notify the user that she/he should look in the log files for more information or something like that. :)

guess easily achievable either ;) how would you signal error back to epi? throwing an exception? returning message?

I talked to a guy at Epi, he did not have any solution that I could use. So right now we are building a string with every error we have in the job and if the job crashes what the last article it was working on and so on. So basicly a long string (returning message). Then we send an email with the error message to the users in a certain group. 

we wanted to solve it with eather the mail or directly in UI, so we took the easy way out and used email alerts :P

I have a solution where you can use even standard logger (log4net) Error severity in all the subsequent services (logger must be injected) and as result returning all the entries collected ;)

How are you displaying the collected entries then? Can you display it in the view where you manually start the job?

entries are collected and converted to string and returned to the framework. meaning that it's displayed as result of the job. same problem as you have at the moment ;)

So you display it on the same view as you start a job?
Could you explain how you push out the message to get displayed there then?

no, it's not displayed on the same page. it's visible on the log viewer tab. however - I'm thinking that displaying result on the same page is *doable*. as I'm for instance intercepting page instruction and adding couple of buttons there (without changing original source code)...

Now I'm with you.

Could you explain how you added the buttons without changing original source code?
