Hi All,

I have 1 record that comes in on an input stream that needs to be parsed and split into 10 records and then sent to the SAME target output stream; i.e., if I get 100 records on the input stream, I will have 1000 records when the output stream finishes.

I am wondering if there is a transformation component that can help me with the above or would/could I write my own?

Regards,

Ian.

Hi !

I am not sure that I understand it correctly. You need to multiply data records  
? Then what you can do is to use SimpleCopy and SimpleGather components connected  
to each other. You just need to create 10 edges between these two. SimpleCopy  
sends 1 record to each output port and SimpleGather collects all records from  
all input ports and sends them to one output port.
