Hi,

is there a way to expose the file type suffix (e.g. ".shp") after the file has been created and zipped with the FeatureWriter? The "_dataset" attribute only yealds the .zip suffix whereas _feature_type attribute does only show the file name without the suffix. Thank you for your help.

You should be able to configure a PATH reader in a FeatureReader to read the contents of the zip file. See here as an example:
