Hello all,
I have a bunch of linework that I'm trying to merge together. As I
understand it, the ArcFactory is the way to accomplish this. I'm
reading in features from the E00 format, and then writing back out to
E00 format. I'm processing my linework using the following factory
defintion:
FACTORY_DEF * ArcFactory \
INPUT FEATURE_TYPE edges \
END_NODED \
CLOSE_LOOPS \
OUTPUT LINE FEATURE_TYPE edges
There is no more processing done on the linework after this factory - it
is written out to E00. As far as I understand, this should result in a
set of linework that contains no degree two nodes, as I've not included
a GROUP_BY clause, and so the factory should consider all of the edges
together at once. Nevertheless, my final output does include degree two
nodes - the only differences in attribution between a given pair of
lines that (as far as I can tell) should have been merged are the
additional attributes that FME assigns to the features when being
written back out to E00 (fnode, tnode, etc.).
Are there any hidden caveats to this factory that I may be encountering?
