Crazy Transformer error. Any help is greatly appreciated
Posted: Fri May 23, 2008 6:30 am
I have been using 7.5.x for quite some time and never came across this problem which was trobling me a big time.
I have a transformer in the job with a good number of transformations and conversions, the problem is transformer just wont compile and the reason it gives is crazy

I sneaked into the generated .C file and i am bewildered indeed to find the ^A characters. This is the third or fourth time we are facing this prob, and every time we did some adhoc solutions like recoding the job or moving some older correct version etc etc, but the solution or the cause of the problem is not found.
The lines of .C file i will paste here
+1515 if(input0DecimalAMBS_DATE_OPENED[0]!=stage0InterVar0_0)
+1516 {
+1517 local0InterVar0_1=APT_ConvertFromString(input0DecimalAMBS_DATE_OPENED[0].asString());
+1518 localVar1690 =local0InterVar0_1;
+1519 localVar1690.trimPadding(UChar(' '), APT_UString::eBeginning);

+1524 local0InterVar0_2=APT_strtod(localVar1740,&pUCharBuf);
As I have already said, I am lost in no mans land.
Any idea ,Where can I raise a ticket to IBM DS product support group?
