[subrat]

Hi,

While compiling a job, i am getting below error on transformer stage:-
----------------------------------------
Compiling: Source = 'RT_BP843/JOB.1339953180.DT.1482146347.TRANS2', Object = 'RT_BP843.O/JOB.1339953180.DT.1482146347.TRANS2'
********************************************************************************************************************************?***
0137 Pin%%V0S47P28.Column%%1 = #<>~
^
"GE" unexpected, Was expecting: Assignment Operator

1 Errors detected, No Object Code Produced.
(UKWHDERIBALnbDIRTransformJob.DIR00002_Split_Tfm)
----------------------------------------

I am wondering whats the problem here.. Till sometimes back it was working fine. Any idea?

Thanks

Do you have a derivation in that transformer using "GE" for "greater than or equal to"? If so, replace it with ">=" and see if it will compile.

Actually the GE stems from #< which DataStage BASIC interprets as "not less than". So it's necessary to ask where "#<>~" comes from in your job design, and why it's unquoted if it's a string.

If it's any help, it's the derivation of the first column on an output link from the second Transformer stage in your job design.

Ah... I see that now.
