The condition and update options are ignored for insert operations.

The condition and update options cannot both be “true” for a field mapping unless it is a
reflexive update field mapping.

Examples of Field Mapping

Assigns source field FIRST_NAME to target field FIRSTNAME:

FIRSTNAME = FIRST_NAME

Adds the value of source field VALUE_SOURCE to the current value of target field
VALUE_TARGET

:

VALUE_TARGET = VALUE_SOURCE add

Assigns NULL to the target field INFO:

INFO = NULL

Assigns a constant string"N/A" to the target field INFO:

INFO = constant "N/A"

Asks Transporter to generate unique key values for the target field EMP_ID:

EMP_ID = identity loader

Increments the source field VALUE_SOURCE by 10 and assigns the resulting value to the
target field VALUE_TARGET:

VALUE_TARGET = expression ":VALUE_SOURCE + 10"

Sources

The sources section describes the location of data source and target, and their provider options.

sources
{

source-definition [, source-definition ]...

}

source-definition:

specific-source [, options source-options ]

specific-source
sourcename file filename |
sourcename pipe pipename |
sourcename {jdbc} {sql sqltext|table tablename} |

sourcename jms jmsname

source-definition

One or more occurrences of source-definition, separated by a comma (,). The last
source-definition

should not use the comma separator.

sourcename

A name you create for the source. The name must be unique within the sources namespace.
sourcename

is case-insensitive and cannot exceed 64 bytes.

sourcename

file filename [options source-options]

Specifies a data file as the data source/target. filename specifies the location of the file,
including both the path and the file name.

Transporter assumes the data file is uncompressed.

Example:

Specify a plain data file, datafile_1.dat, in the current directory with source name
data1

:

data1 file "./datafile_1.dat"
