tRowGenerator resets to default values

Anonymous — Mon, 04 May 2015 17:06:55 GMT

I am using component tRowGenerator to populate Date dimension. I have one date column with Function TalendDate.addDate. Env variables are date, nb, dateType. I set the values for these 3 parameters and ran the job. The job ran successfully and populated few columns of the table. I need to map more columns of the table and run the job again.
Every time I closed the job and opened it again the parameters are reset to their default values, now if I run the job it throws an error stating myDate cannot be resolved to a variable. addValue cannot be resolved to a variable.
I set the parameters back several times, saved the job but still they are not retained. Is this a bug in Talend DI? How to resolve?
I am using Version: 5.6.1
Build id: V5.6.1_20141207_1530

Hi,
How did u add the date variable for TalendDate.addDate().
Use a static date and parse it using parsedate function of talend to avoid your issue.

Hi Bhanu,
This is how I have added the date variable. See screenshot. I was using context variable myStartDate as date variable and
passed that as parameter to the addDate function. I don't quite get what you mean by using static date and parse, can you post a screenshot.
Thanks

Hi Shynicv
Where are your screenshots? V5.5.1 was an rather old version, can you test the latest version and see if the problem still exists?
Best regards

Hi
It seems you don't use the function TalendDate.addDate(Date mydate, int number, String datePattern) correctly. You can look into the definition of this function in Repository-->Code-->Routine-->System-->TalendDate.

Why you use this function on tRowGenerator?

Shong,
I am using the TalendDate function as per the definition. It also works as expected when I run the job. I am able to generate six years of dates from 1/1/2012.
That is NOT the issue. The issue is that when I close the job and open it again. TalendDate.add function is losing all the parameters I set to originally. The parameters are resetting to default values.
Is this a fix or workaround to this issue?
Thanks
Shyni
