Hi,

 

I have an issue when reading from an Oracle database.

In my table a field is set to number(10,2) but when read with the Oracle Reader (Non-Spatial or Spatial Object), I get the attribute with the fme_data_type String.

 

However, in the User Attribute tab of the reader parameters, I do see the oracle type numer(width,decimal) / 10 / 2.

 

How come this can be ?

 

Same behavior with the the FeatureReader.

I am using FME 2020.2

Context is : reading from Oracle DB, reading from Postgres DB and comparing both tables with same attributes with ChangeDetector to syncronize Oracle to Postgres.

Hi @p.jeremie​ I've tried reproducing this issue in FME 2020.2 with no luck. Would you be able to share a few screenshots to better describe the issue you are having here? I might be misunderstanding your problem so this will help greatly.

 

Thanks,

Dan M

@danatsafe​ No problem, here are some screenshots.

@p.jeremie​ thank you for sharing the screenshots! If I'm not mistaken, it seems like you may have shared the incoming data from the PostGIS Reader twice. Would it be possible to get a screenshot of the incoming data from the Oracle Reader?

 

Much appreciated!

@danatsafe​ You're right, I had issues with embedding images. Should be ok now.
