I have a workspace that reads in a set of points along a road, and then successfully uses a PointConnector to create an output line that follows the road (based on attribute numbering). The output looks right using Inspector also passes the GeometryValidator for basic geometry integrity, however, when I pass the output line to the GeometryCoercer (geometry type fme_line), I get an error: "Cannot coerce from IFMELine to fme_line". Looking at the documentation of IFMELine and fme_line, I didn't find anything that specifically addresses converting between the two. I assume that avoiding this error probably involves some Geometry transformer I have not yet used..?

Hi,

 

 

It's a warning message that will be displayed when the input geometry type cannot be change to the specified geometry type, including the case where those are the same. IFMELine object is a line geometry, its geometry type identifier is "fme_line" generally. I think the line has been output from the "Untouched" port without changing geometry type.
