Question

how to test a boolean?

F

Hi,

in former versions of fme Desktop i used the tester for testing a boolean Attribute. now i found, that in v 2018 the transformer "tester" doesn't allow a test on true/false any longer.

what can i use instead?

thanks in advance for your assistance!

The attribute validator will allow you to test this

Thanks, egomm, but that will not solve my Problem.

I need to test the attribute if it is false or true. i only need those with the value "false".

thanks,

Frauke

Is there a reason you cannot use attribute = false in the tester?

You can most probably test it like it was a string, e.g. test for "true" or "false"
