Hi,
I was wondering if there is a way to set up some kind of progress bar in my application which calls fmw file? Does FME know even approximately how much time he needs to finish?
Can I use some other information to get estimated remaining time?
Thanks!
FME does not know in advance how long the translation will last. This is because the workspace might contain dynamic branching and/or looping depending on the contents. Also, the effort required for some transformations/calculations will depend a lot on the complexity of the data, which cannot be determined in advance.
Another major factor is that FME tries not to read all the data at once (as much as possible), and in these cases FME simply does not know how much data there is left to process.
So in short, there is no estimate for the remaining time available in FME.
