Fixed Length Issue in Flat File

  • 1.  Fixed Length Issue in Flat File

    Posted Mon March 19, 2018 02:03 AM

    Hi team,

    I have created a flat file dictionary having fixed length as extractor type for each of the field definitions.

    Suppose in the field ID of record has fixed length of 0-10.

    Then in the result i could that for ID for record[0] is coming from 0-9
    result for ID for record[1] is coming from 0-8
    result for ID for record[2] is coming from 0-7 and so on.

    The length of the values are getting shorter with the records.

    Kindly advise for this issue.

    Thanks in advance

    Simply i can say that for the Fixed length Extractor type , in the Schema document Record[0] , values are coming properly (after getting extracted from the
    correct Start and End position) but for the next records , not sure which start and end position it refers?

    Kindly help.

    Thanks.
