Hi,
I've the same problem.

I don't know why...
When I display the Code tab, file is blank. No Java source code is generated.
If I click on Run, I've the following error message:
Execution failed : Failed to generate code.

Does anyone know how to repare this error ?
Thx in advance.
FYI:
TOS 3.0.1.r19980
Java project

Ok, I found how to solve my problem.
I you've got the same problem, try this method:
Just after having the error:
- Open the log file ....//workspace/.metadata/.log in notepad.
- Go to the end of the file.
- You will have a stack trace like that:
!STACK 0
org.eclipse.emf.codegen.jet.JETException: InvocationTargetException
at org.eclipse.emf.codegen.jet.JETEmitter.generate(JETEmitter.java:475)
at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.invokeFramework(Main.java:549)

at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.basicRun(Main.java:504)
at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.run(Main.java:1236)

... 53 more
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.talend.designer.codegen.translators.processing.TFilterRowMainJava.generate(TFilterRowMainJava.java:134)
... 58 more
- Get the last error in stack trace and find the component raising the error. In my case, the component is TFilterRowMainJava.
- Deactivate all components of the family which raises the error. tFilterRow_1 in my case.
- When I click on "Code" tab, Java source code is displayed.
- Correct errors if exists.
- If you click on run, the job is running...
I hope this help you.
🙂

Hi
I get the same problem, but when I try to desactivate my "tFilterRow"s, I get SWTEvent error in the ".log" file and the Design View does not refresh content any more.
Any way to recover the job ?

Hello

the Design View does not refresh content any more.

After you desactive the error component, like tFilterRow, you should press ctrl+s to save the job, then open the code tab to see if it generate the Java code again.
Best regards

shong,
I cannot desactivate the component, because selecting the option in the context menu generates SWTEvent error.
However I finally managed to recover the job, but I'm not sure what triggered it.
I think opening the component props, modifying some, and save the job may have done the trick.
Anyway job's code gets generated again.

You are doing some wrong settings on tfiledelimited, need to check and correct it. If you can't find the errors, please upload some screenshots of your job.

I've seen quite a few people repeat this same error and usually it's to do with the tFilterRow. What I've found is that they have changed the output schema to be different from the input schema for this component. Changing the output back to what the input usually will resolve the error.

This thread just helped me a lot !
The issue was in fact the change of output schema of a tFilterRow, but it has been done quite silently. I think this IDE needs more warning but I understand it's not easy to predict all situations Anyway, good to know where to look for when you front this very confusing error !!

Hello,
i had the same experience. Is that a bug? The given solution does look like a rather weak workaround, does it not?

Hi Guys,
I had the same problem. With no 'red box' indicators, it can be hard to find. I solved it by deactivating all nodes and then 'synchronising columns' on all nodes such as 'Filter', 'Sort' and 'Unique'. Once I reactivated the nodes, I press 'play' and it worked.

Almost 7 years later, this still worked for me. I had a tfilter where I accidentally removed the filtered column from the input, and f6 started throwing this error. I had just added a complicated tjava to the context setup and thought it must be that, but nope, it was a tfilter having a cow 8 miles down the page. The .log file pointed me toward the tfilter.

Thanks for the post, the issue for me was also in the tFilterRow component.
