Hi All,

I am trying to convert String data type value to boolean.

Source is DB Table where values are T/F. Tmap used for just for transformation.

using tconverttype I am doing conversion from string to boolean but getting below error:

Cannot convert "T" to Boolean

Cannot convert "F" to Boolean

Cannot convert "T" to Boolean

Cannot convert "F" to Boolean

Please help.

Thanks

@Vrushabh Malbari , first you need write a function to convert string to another string and then you use tconverttype.

row1.col.equals("T")?"true":"false"

since in talend, boolean values would be expected like true or false.

Thanks,
