$,${},PDL, Shell, DML Resolutions in Abinitio



The Class Notes:

$ and ${} - 

PDL  - 
1. can reference parameters $, ${}
2. $() 
3. $[] in-line DML - can reference functions

AB_DML_DEFS   $AI_XFR/custom_date_fns.xfr

param_test    $[let string("") x= date_to_str(now1());]

DML Resolution:
When we need to use metaprogramming functions

Shell
param1 =    $()  ==> PDL

  Metaprogramming in Abinitio 1. How to create output DML dynamically based in INPUT DML 2. How to create intermediate transform( XFR) dynamically based on INPUT DML      Please See my you tube video for explanation : PART 1 PART 2 For Example, let us say, we have an Input DML as below-: cat input.dml record string(",") name; decimal(",") age; decimal(",") salary; string(",") aadharid; date("yyyy-mm-dd")(",") joiningdate; string(",") mobileno=NULL; string(",") dlno=NULL; string(",") passportnumber=NULL; end; (1.1) prepare a new DML based on input DML i.e. add fields, remove fields, modify type Graph based parameters: ===================================================================== input_dml=$DIR/input.dml  [interpretation = constant] input_dml_info =$[read_type(input_dml)]   [interpretation = pdl] /* Define functions in AB_DML_DEFS */ AB_DML_DEFS= $[ out:: dynamic_dml_gen(input_dml_info)= beg...

 Question :  I get records of various region in huge volume ,  we want to write the records in region specific files.   How to achieve that?
