[resolved] writing to a txt file

[Anonymous]

I need a component to write messages/info to separate text files.
For example, writing error messages to a txt log file and warning to a different log file.
Can anyone help me please?

Hi
Maybe what you need is tLogCatcher.
There are three options on this component: Catch Java Exception, Catch tDie, Catch tWarn.
If you want to do this separately, put two tLogCatcher in your job.
The first tLogCatcher: only check "Catch Java Exception". Then link it with output component.
The second tLogCatcher: only check "Catch tWarn". Then link it with output component.
I hope the error and warning you mentioned is Java Exception and tWarn..

Pedro

Hi Pedro,
Thanks for your quick response!
But the problem is that if i use a tLogCatcher, i cannot specify the name of a txt file to which i want to output the warnings.
I want to be able to specify the txt file names and be able to output warnings to a txt file named warning.txt and output the errors to a txt file named errors.txt.
kind regards.

Hi
But you can.
tLogCatcher_1(only check "Catch Java Exception") --main-->tFileoutput_1(error.txt)
tLogCatcher_2(only check "Catch tWarn") --main-->tFileoutput_2(warning.txt)
Regards,
Pedro

Then you have not tried e.g. the tFileOutputDelimited or tFileOutputPositional
