Hello,
I am running into an issue while trying to import shape file data
into smallworld.
The shape file field shows as char 96 when I check in FME as source
dataset. I created a field in Smallworld object as ds_char16canon_vec
(96) which shows up as char(97) in FME.
But while translating, I am getting errors as "string too long,
maximum 96 chars allowed" even though the source record from the
shape has only 64 chars. So I put some debug_print statement in
fme_tics_client.int!received_feature() and this is what I get
sw:fme_alpha_field (:slotted )
sw:fme_alpha_field!name "first_owner_nm"
sw:fme_alpha_field!type 1
sw:fme_alpha_field!value "VINCKIER RICHARD A&JACQUELYN M A-B
REVOCABLE 1992 TRUST 11-25-92!<spa>u<backspace>"
the source record shows value only upto "VINCKIER RICHARD
A&JACQUELYN M A-B REVOCABLE 1992 TRUST 11-25-92". So there is some
garbage data comining into the field and sometimes will break the
translation. I also got some errors saying
**** Warning: Failed to translate characters: %?
text_converter_strange_input(real_string="?", string="%? ")
However the source field value has no "?".
