What will be the output when a file with 0 records is connected as input to a reformat and an output..

Answer / Runjay Kumar Singh

When a file with zero records is connected as input to a reformat job that assigns hardcoded values to the output columns, the result will be an output file containing the specified hardcoded values repeated as many times as the number of output columns. For example, if there are 5 output columns and each column has a hardcoded value, the output file will contain rows with those 5 hardcoded values repeated over and over.
