CommaTextIO occasionally writing empty file

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 135

Hello,

There is a process for our business that writes out order information to a csv file that is then FTP'd to a shipping company.  However, this process sometimes writes out an empty csv file when there should have been data.  I cannot figure out the problem with the code and was wondering if perhaps I was doing something obviously wrong?  _conRecords is a container of containers, where the containers hold the information such as item number, price, etc. 

fullFileName = HAExportFileHelper::createFileName(_filePath, _fileName, _extention);
fileIOPermission = new FileIOPermission(fullFileName, #io_write);
fileIOPermission.assert();
commaIoWrite = new CommaTextIo(fullFileName, #io_write, #ANSIEncoding);

commaIoWrite.outFieldDelimiter(_fieldDelimiter);
commaIoWrite.outRecordDelimiter(#delimiterCRLF);

conLength = conLen(_conRecords);

for (conIdx = 1; conIdx <= conLength; conIdx++)
{
commaIoWrite.write(conPeek(_conRecords, conIdx));
}

commaIoWrite = null;
CodeAccessPermission::revertAssert();
info(strFmt("Data has been exported to file %1.", fullFileName));

    Hi AXGreenHorn,

    Are you using the same filename or are there some variables like date/time which is added to the filename? Have you reviewed the coding which compiles the container _conRecords? Have you also tried to use the debugger to find out more on this?
