I am reading a number of records from an Oracle database. When using FeatureMerger on these, I find that the resulting features have NULL values for attributes DATE1, DATE2, etc., while the attributes DATE1.full, DATE2.full have been merged correctly. Is there a simpler solution than exposing the DATEn.full attributes and converting them to the DATEn attributes? (There are a LOT of such date attributes.)
Any help greatly appreciated.

the easiest is probably to use a BulkAttributeRenamer:
this will rename e.g. DATE1.full to DATE1, while preserving the value from DATE1.full.

It seems that FeatureMerger (for some strange reason) refuses to merge other date attributes than the original .full ones, so I need to place the BulkAttributeRenamer after FeatureMerger, and then reformat the attributes from the YYYYMMDDHHMMSS format to the YYYYMMDD format I require. I suppose DateFormatter should do the trick.You are right in that I do not have to expose the attributes - learned something new today.
