Error description
This appears to be a very difficult to hit issue. The problem is the way we internally name conversion place holders, which is with the port kind, port number, field type, field name, and conversion index. It just so happens the customer has a field name REFERENCE11 with a conversion index of 16 and a field REFERENCE1 with a conversion index of 116 coming from the same port with the same type. So even though the pieces are unique separately, when they are concatenated they form the same string.
Local fix
rename fields to get around possible naming collision.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: Users of parallel transform operators with very large schemas. **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: If the parallel transform has a large number of columns and the customer column names end in an increasing integer, such as COL1, COL2, COL3, etc, it is possible to cause naming conflicts within the generated C++ code of the transform. **************************************************************** RECOMMENDATION: Install patch JR31426 This change is included in 8.1 Fix Pack 1. ****************************************************************
Problem conclusion
Slightly altered the internal column naming scheme of the transform operator to ensure uniqueness.
Temporary fix
