Hi All,

My job does the following

CFF (reads ebcdic data) ---> Tfm ----> flat file

The tfm just selects a few columns from the input and writes to o/p. The CFF contains about 205 columns defined.

On trying to compile the job, I get the following error

Compiling: Source = 'RT_BP3618/JOB.848242765.DT.1438049575.TRANS1', Object = 'RT_BP3618.O/JOB.848242765.DT.1438049575.TRANS1'
************************************************************************************************************************************************************?*****
0443 IF STAGECOM.TRACE.STATS THEN CALL $PERF.NAME(-2,'asciiWHPW13_Read_Link.Derivation')
^
"IF" unexpected, Was expecting: Assignment Operator

I tried the recompiling / renaming / creating copy followed by compiles / deleting the i/p link n cff stage and re recreating again. The problem still persists.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers

Something like that would seem to be a bug. I'd suggest you contact your Support provider and ask them.

Can you open the file RT_BP3618/JOB.848242765.DT.1438049575.TRANS1 in your project directory and post a 20 line window centred on line number 443?

Ray,

I strongly believe that it is case of Meta data definition. Please double check the meta data, It should work fine.

Recently One of my colleague was facing the same prob.

Do let us know if you have found a solution.

It sure worked. I had left spaces before / after some column names in the CFF stage columns definition tab. Once I corrected those, it got compiled.

One thing to note though is that the job got compiled after removing spaces before. If some column had a space after it, it did not gave any problems. So I guess that a space after a column name is ok (although the complied code for trasnformer shows the difference clearly).

Thanks everyone
