Representation of Nonprintable Delimiters
Especially if you are working with the data format CSV, delimiters have to be defined. If a non-printable character is to be used as a delimiter, for example, a control character, the character cannot simply be entered with the keyboard. In these cases, a representation of the non-printable character is required.
TAB |
Tabulator. |
NL |
Newline. |
CR |
Carriage return. |
0x<hexcode> |
Specification as hex code (2 digits). |
This representation works for
Response Routes with content CSV for the CSV quoting
Source structure nodes, attribute Delimiter
Integration Units CSVWithHeaderUnit, CSVWithoutQuotesIU, SchenkerEdiCreationUnit, SqlBulkUnit.
Some functions allow a different form of representation. To distinguish the description from a plain text, a backslash is prefixed as a label. Example: Function replace-char-at( a, b, c ) allows the use of \TAB and \NL. Please refer to the function documentation of the specific function.
