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.

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.

Edit schema

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

• View schema: choose this option to view the
  schema only.

• Change to built-in property: choose this
  option to change the schema to Built-in for
  local changes.

• Update repository connection: choose this
  option to change the schema stored in the repository and decide whether to propagate
  the changes to all the Jobs upon completion. If you just want to propagate the
  changes to the current Job, you can select No
  upon completion and choose this schema metadata again in the [Repository Content] window.

Global Variables

ERROR_MESSAGE: the error message generated by the
component when an error occurs. This is an After variable and it returns a string. This
variable functions only if the Die on error check box is
cleared, if the component has this check box.

A Flow variable functions during the execution of a component while an After variable
functions after the execution of the component.

To fill up a field or expression with a variable, press Ctrl +
Space to access the variable list and choose the variable to use from it.

For further information about variables, see
Talend Studio

User Guide.

Usage rule

tELTHiveMap is used along with a
tELTHiveInput and tELTHiveOutput. Note that the Output link
to be used with these components must correspond strictly to the
syntax of the table name.

If the Studio used to connect to a Hive database is operated on Windows, you
must manually create a folder called tmp in the root of the disk
where this Studio is installed.
