JS7 Java Jobs API - the Outcome variables are ignored if the job throws an exception

Current Situation

• If the JS7 API Job throws an exception and sets Outcome variables before the exception or in finally block, they will be ignored.
  • Example:

    public class MyJS7Job extends Job<MyJS7JobArguments> {
    
        @Override
        public void processOrder(OrderProcessStep<MyJS7JobArguments> step) throws Exception {
            try{
                ...
                step.getOutcome().putVariable("my_variable","my_variable_value");
                ...
                throw new Exception("my exception");
            }
            catch (Throwable e) {
                throw e;
            }
            finally {
                step.getOutcome().putVariable("my_finally_variable","my_finally_variable_value");
            }
        }
    }
    

  • The both variables my_variable and my_finally_variable are not set as Outcome variables and are not available for the subsequent jobs.

Desired Behaviour
A defined Outcome variable should be set regardless of whether Job run is successful or not.
