Question

I am looking for solution to get the the thread name currently executing the quartz job. In my application, quartz is configured using properties and jobs triggers are DB driven.

Here i am instantiating the quartz and starting it.

StdSchedulerFactory factory = new StdSchedulerFactory(configFile);
Scheduler scheduler = factory.getScheduler();
 scheduler.addGlobalJobListener(new QuartzJobListener());
 scheduler.addGlobalTriggerListener(new QuartzTriggerListener());
scheduler.start();

Able to get the quartz JOB and TRIGGER details as follows,

try{
Scheduler scheduler = StdSchedulerFactory.getDefaultScheduler();
List<JobExecutionContext> jobList = scheduler.getCurrentlyExecutingJobs();
for(JobExecutionContext jobExecutionContext : jobList){
    // JOB Details 
    JobDetail jobDetail = jobExecutionContext.getJobDetail();
    String strJobName = jobDetail.getName();
    String strDescription = jobDetail.getDescription();

    // Trigger Details
    Trigger trigger = jobExecutionContext.getTrigger();
    String strTriggerName = trigger.getName();
    String strFireInstanceId = trigger.getFireInstanceId();
    int state = scheduler.getTriggerState(trigger.getName(),trigger.getGroup());
    }
}catch(Exception e){
    e.printStackTrace();
}

My question is – How can i get the thread name which is executing the current job?

Here is Question addressing the same issue but havent got any solution reply as of now.

Answer 1

You could add a

private Thread thead;

variable to your Job class and in the execute() method, set

thread = Thread.currentThread();
