XML shouldn't be that big. I had the same first th...

Thanks Andrew.

I have used the Saxxon parser at two sites succesfully. It is very fast and reliable.

You need Java 1.5 to run it.

If you need the scripts I used to call it I'll post it, but only if you can't figure it out

Has anybody used XML external parser, not the xalan parser supplied by Datastage?

Assume for my specific case I can use either one, what is the main advantage of using data set over sequential file?

Does anybody know where we can get a list 'what's new' in 7.5.2 ?
djoni

OMG !!!

[quote="s_boyapati"]I heard from IBM sales guy regarding that. As per my understanding, It might be Q4, 2006 or by early 2007. Beta testing almost all done as per his understanding. Only few clients signed up for Beta testing.

You really mean I must pay for seeing your message?
I thought it was a free informal public forum for DataStage practioners which was why I liked it.

Thanks. I can't see your whole messsage. Anyway, my office will not participate in any beta program. We want to use the GA release. :cry: djoni No news is probably good news. The longer they spend getting it right, the better the end product is likely to be. Stay tuned, be patient. You are too late ...

Does anybody know what's happening with the HAWK release?
When my office bought our license we were told that it would come out in October 2005.
Then, we got an update it would be 1Q2006, and then ... ?

IBM told me, not supported.
So, it works for you, no problem at all?

I guess you have a chance. Version Control has something called Custom Folder. I have not tried, but look at the following, from the Version Contol manual: Using Custom Folders Many development projects which use DataStage for extraction, transformation and loading (ETL) also incorporate other proje...

Has anybody successfully used Oracle 10.2 (10g release 2) as a source and/or target?
Thanks.

I might have a different Version Control than yours. In the Version Control that I use (comes in my 7.1.5.A), the release/version number has three parts. The first one (leftmost) is fixed by IBM (in my case it's 50) for all my jobs/components, I can never change. The second (middle) is what the manu...

lack of specific DataStage guide/standard/best practise, my company has decided to specify major if any change/maintenance needs more than 90 man-days of effort (that's the second part of the Version Control's three parts numbering scheme), and minor (the last/third part) to anything else. djoni Tha...
