Terracotta Discussion Forums

Hello,

I'm working on a project that uses Quartz Scheduler to monitor team forums for participation. If a team member participates, a context object in the Application is changed.
I am having trouble parsing Application Context Attributes to the Job interface.

Is there a way to parse these contexts to the job through the JobDataMap for their values at Trigger time?
Would I need to deploy some form of Listener to change the data in the JobDataMap once the contexts change in the Application?
From my understanding so far, I would need to employ JDBC to store the contexts for the Job to read once Triggered.

Any help or advice where to look would be much appreciated. Am very new to Quartz and Servers and this has had me stumped for days now.
