Binary to Interger conversion

Post by UPS »

When attempting to count number of bytes in a derivation, from a field length of 3764 binary to a output column of 68 + Len(INPUT.column) (interger) we are getting the following error. We have attempted using DataStage functions and string in transformer itself.

Error in output column derivation expression for column COUNT in link CBL2031. Invalid conversion requested from a raw to a string.

A follow up to the initial question, How to count the bytes in a variable length record in a parallel job in v7.5, when the input sequenial file has record level and record type set as varying?
