You can use the ListElementCounter to find the last position, which you can then use in the AttributeCreator. Example, assuming your list is called "list{}":

Of course! I didn't see it in the popup specifying "input a number" and didn't think of this manual way to do it. Good call - this should work.

 

 

However, I can't get it to "evaluate" properly? Instead, it creates an attribute called list{@Value(_element_count)}

Which version of FME are you using? I tested with FME 2016.1.3.1.

Okay, now it works here too. However, it also exposes an attribute called list{@Value(count)}, which confused me. Thanks, David!

Which version of FME are you using? I tested with FME 2016.1.3.1.

 

 

Yes, the exposed list{@Value(count)} annoys us a bit.

 

For what it's worth, if you want to avoid to expose it, and also do not use Python, Tcl scripting would be an alternative. Assuming an attribute called "_newValue" stores the new value to be appended to the "_list{}".

 

Tcl Expression for a TclCaller

 

FME_SetAttribute _list{[FME_Execute NumElements _list{}]} [FME_GetAttribute _newValue]

FME Function call in an FMEFunctionCaller

 

@Tcl2("FME_SetAttribute _list{[FME_Execute NumElements _list{}]} @Value(_newValue)")

YES, I know you don't like to use Tcl, @david_r ;-)

Hi All,

I am working with lists and require some guidance on the below scenario

I have list which contains 'n' elements. I would like to add a sub-element to each element in the list.

Assuming my list name called as "list{}"

Example: (My list currently looks like this)

    List{0}
        element1
        element2
        element3
    List{1}
        element1
        element2
        element3
    List{2}
        element1
        element2
        element3
    List{n}
        element1
        element2
        element3
        
I would like to add new sub-element called "element4" at the end of each list element (i.e., add "element4" as sub-element below "element3" )        

Expected Output (I would like to achieve something like below)

    List{0}
        element1
        element2
        element3
        element4
    List{1}
        element1
        element2
        element3
        element4
    List{2}
        element1
        element2
        element3
        element4
    List{n}
        element1
        element2
        element3
        element4

Would really appreciate your help in achieving the above expected output.

Thanks
