Question

Attribute Manager changing \\ to /

+6

I have used an Attribute Manager to create a new attribute for a file path.

The path is for example c:\\FME\\data\\myworspace\\sourcefile.html

The output from the Attribute Manager is c:\\FME\\data/myworkspace\\sourcefile.html

It is outputting a random / in the middle of the path rather than \\.

This results in the path failing to work.

I can use a string replacer after to correct it but it is not working correctly.

Any ideas on why it does this would be great.

Are you creating the file path from an existing attribute?

Partially yes. I am basically doing this

c:\\FME\\data\\myworkspace\\@Value(User) sourcefile.html
