Feature Representation
In addition to the generic FME feature attributes that FME Workbench adds to all features (see About Feature Attributes), a Data File feature consists of the following attributes:
Attribute Name |
Contents |
---|---|
data_file_data | The line of text read from the source file or to be written to the destination file. |
data_file_type | The geometry type of the data file. This will always be data_file_none. |
data_file_length | Total number of bytes in data_file_data attribute. (Reader only) |
data_file_number | Line number of the text line within the file. (Reader only) |
data_file_eol | The end of line type identifier which will be read per source file and can be specified per feature and thus per destination data file. |
Data File user attributes are not supported and all known format attributes have a fixed range of values except for the actual file data in data_file_data which is treated as as stream of raw bytes.
