I am getting the error "SiGSEGV error", while I compile my job. My job has a transformer stage with some functions (like stringtoDate).
Has anyone got this error before ? Any pointers will help.

Please post the entire error. Which compiler are you using? What kind of UNIX OS? Also, please post the generated transformer code.
Thanks,
BP

That is an UNIX way of killing your job. Segmentation Violation tends to point to attempts to write to a memory location that they are not authorized to write to. Some of the causes may be a poorly defined column width (where some data are larger than what the columns are defined to hold).
As stated earlier - Post the entire log, and we can dig through it for you.
(as an aside, SIGBUS is the violation of attempting to read from a memory location that is not a part of what you're supposed to read.)
