Schema and Edit
Schema

A schema is a row description. It defines the number of fields to be processed and passed on
to the next component. The schema is either Built-In or
stored remotely in the Repository.

Since version 5.6, both the Built-In mode and the Repository mode are
available in any of the Talend solutions.

Built-In: You create and store the schema locally for this
component only. Related topic: see Talend Studio
User Guide.

Repository: You have already created the schema and
stored it in the Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs. Related
topic: see Talend Studio User Guide.

When the schema to be reused has default values that are integers or functions, ensure that
these default values are not enclosed within quotation marks. If they are, you must remove
the quotation marks manually.

For more details, see https://help.talend.com/display/KB/Verifying+default+values+in+a+retrieved+schema.

Click Edit schema to make changes to the schema. If the
current schema is of the Repository type, three options are
available:

Remote File Name

Name of the file to be loaded.

Dynamic settings

Click the [+] button to add a row in the table and fill
the Code field with a context variable to choose your
database connection dynamically from multiple connections planned in your Job. This feature
is useful when you need to access database tables having the same data structure but in
different databases, especially when you are working in an environment where you cannot
change your Job settings, for example, when your Job has to be deployed and executed
independent of Talend Studio.

The Dynamic settings table is available only when the
Use an existing connection check box is selected in the
Basic settings view. Once a dynamic parameter is
defined, the Component List box in the Basic settings view becomes unusable.

For more information on Dynamic settings and context
variables, see Talend Studio User Guide.

Usage

This component is to be used along with tMSSqlOutputBulk component. Used together, they can
offer gains in performance while feeding a MSSql database.

Log4j

The activity of this component can be logged using the log4j feature. For more information on this feature, see Talend Studio User
Guide.

For more information on the log4j logging levels, see the Apache documentation at http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/apidocs/org/apache/log4j/Level.html.
