Hello,

 

 

I have serveral different directories within one directory that have TAB files (of point, line, and polygon geometry type) that I would like to merge and convert to SHP by there unique name.  For example:

 

 

\\\\one\\test.TAB

 

\\\\one\\test2.TAB

 

\\\\one\\test3.TAB

 

\\\\two\\test.TAB

 

\\\\two\\test2.TAB

 

\\\\two\\test3.TAB

 

 

What I want is for the output directory is, all the same name files to be merged and converfted to ESRI SHP, e.g.

 

 

\\\\export\\test.SHP

 

\\\\export\\test2.SHP

 

\\\\export\\test3.SHP

 

 

I defined my TAB reader to the TAB directory/sub directory as Single Merged Feature Type.  For my SHP writer I defined my output directory, however I'm not sure where to go from here since it is asking for a particular geometry type and the input TAB files are of different geometry type being point, line, and polygon.  I guessing there is some automated way of using one reader and one writer instead of creating seperate readers and writers for each unique input dataset?

 

 

Thank you
