Copy of Component writes header but no rows

[billimmer]

Hi Group,

I created my first component.  It's just a copy of tPostgresqlOutputBulk called myPostgresqlOutputBulk, with no changes at this point.  I published it using the component designer.  Then added it to a test job, along with the original component.  They should product the same results at this point, but the custom component creates a header with no rows.  Any suggestions?  I'm on 6.4 TOS.  

Here's the Job:

Output from copy of component:

Output from original

Why you want to create bulk component, which is already available?

It is not possible to write an empty string with the provided component.  Also, I want to learn about component development.

OK.

Anyone with thoughts?  It's strange.  When I run in debug, code is generated for the "begin" and "finally" sections.  But the "main" code is missing.  The main file is there, with it's code, but it's not generated.  I only get:

/**
* [mPostgresqlOutputBulk_1 main ] start
*/

currentComponent = "mPostgresqlOutputBulk_1";

tos_count_mPostgresqlOutputBulk_1++;

/**
* [mPostgresqlOutputBulk_1 main ] stop
*/

Ok, I figured it out.  

The original Talend component main.javajet file had this line:

<%@ include file="../templates/Log4j/Log4jFileUtil.javajet"%>

The fix was to change this to:

<%@ include file="@{org.talend.designer.components.localprovider}/components/templates/Log4j/Log4jFileUtil.javajet"%>
