Reading fme_connections.data


Hi all,

I am trying to create a workspace to automatically review other workspaces to ensure they meet our development standards and guidelines. One of these standards is that all connections used should be in the master connections file we all share.

Which reader do I use to read the fme_connections.data file and get a list of the connection names? A standard text reader returns a load of #$@#@!# so I assume it's encrypted somehow?

Thanks in advance

James

A sudden memory from when a colleague set up the master file was that an SQLite reader does the trick.

@granty555 , Yes you can use an SQLite reader to read that data but just want to clarify that the DB can change with future FME releases and we cannot guarantee that the future version is going to be backward compatible.
