Forward or backlash in the Context Variable

rgranado — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 07:33:56 GMT

Hello,

I just installed Talend Studio 7.0 from 6.4. My file paths with forward slashes worked fine in 6.4. Now in 7.0 it does not work. What is the proper way to use in the context variable?

When I hard code the paths (in tFileInputDelimieted) like so: "S:/Folder1/Folder2/", it works fine. However, I don't want to hard code it; i would like to put in the context variable as these path is used in most of my jobs.

Let me know the proper syntax. Thanks!

@rgranado,you create a global context for the file path and call the context for the all the where are you going to use the same path.

File_name sting S:/Folder1/Folder2/

Hi,

It should work fine without any changes. I tried the job in Talend 7 and its working fine.

If you are using \ symbol, you will have to use escape symbol in front of it. So it should be \\.

Warm Regards,
