CurrentlyProcessedFileName not showing up

CurrentlyProcessedFileName not showing up


So, you've selected the 'Add Currently Processed Flat File Name Port" property, applied the changes and closed the window - and the port did not show up? Me too.

I opened up the Source Definition in mapping again and verified that the property is checked. Unchecked it and - surprise: I got a message saying that CurrentlyProcessedFileName is not present to be deleted!

Checked it again, clicked "Apply' and switched to "Ports" tab WITHOUT CLOSING the Edit Transformations window and voile! It's there! I clicked "OK" to close the window and... It's gone again!

If you can repeat the above and have some observations - please share by leaving a comment.

Solution... well - a workaround rather


I was not able to find the cause and solve it. However editing the Source Definition in Source Analyzer and checking this property (instead of overriding in Mapping Designer) made the CurrentlyProcessedFileName visible and available for processing.
