Modifying JobDataMap in Quartz.NET

Question

I am creating a Quartz.NET application in C#, and creating a bunch of administration webpages (C#/ASP.NET) so users can easily create jobs, set datamap fields and edit datamap fields.

I'm having some trouble editting jobs data maps though - any changes I make aren't saved at all. Is there anything I need to call after modifying the jobs data map?

Thanks

To anyone that has trouble too, this is easily solved by calling the AddJob method of the schedule variable

If you are using Quartz.Net version 1+ you must implement Quartz.IStatefulJob interface for your jobs.

public class MyJob : Quartz.IStatefulJob
{
    //...
}

This interface is obsolete in Quartz.Net 2+ so you have to add [Quartz.PersistJobDataAfterExecutionAttribute()] to your job class. Also you may need to add [Quartz.DisallowConcurrentExecutionAttribute()] to your job class.

[Quartz.PersistJobDataAfterExecutionAttribute()]
[Quartz.DisallowConcurrentExecutionAttribute()]
public class MyJob : Quartz.IJob
{
    //...
}
