Hi all

Someone can help me out as i want to apply filter stage condition which can check for length of a column and based on it data could be transferred to different output streams.where condition currently used is

length(col_name) = 2

but i am getting below error

filter_countryname: Parse error: Expected comparison, 'between', or 'like' operator, got: "("
Parse error: Expected boolean operator (and, or) got: "country".
Parse error: Expected comparison, 'between', or 'like' operator, got: "("
Parse error: Expected boolean operator (and, or) got: "country".

Regards,

hi,

try without brackets,
length col_name =2

or else
try to handle it in source query itself.

Its giving same sort of error.Filter where is like a constraint so i am wondering there should be a way to handle length function ......

SQL functions are not permitted in the WHERE clause of a Filter stage. Refer to the Parallel Job Developer's Guide for full information about what is permitted.

You can probably calculate the length and store it in a different field in the transformer (prior to the filter) and then use that field in the filter condition.
