Informatica Connector Toolkit Frequently Asked Questions

Review the frequently asked questions to answer questions you might have when you use the Informatica Connector Toolkit to develop a connector.
What must I do if I get the message asking me to check the JDK version even if JDK version 1.8 is installed on the machine?
In the Eclipse IDE, navigate to
Window
Preferences
Java
Compiler
 and set
Compiler compliance level
 to 1.8.
When I generate code for native metadata, I get an error message that project description files are out of sync with the file system. Does this error impact code generation?
No. This error does not impact code generation. If you still want to resolve this error, you can select the
Refresh using native hooks or polling
 option from the
Window
Preferences
General
Workspace
 menu in the Eclipse IDE. If you choose to refresh using native hooks or polling, there may be considerable delay in generating code.
Is there a log file that I can refer when I encounter errors while I generate code or publish the Connector?
Refer to the <connector_name>_codebuilder.log file for any errors that you encounter when you generate code or publish the connector. The <connector_name>_codebuilder.log file is available in the <Eclipse workspace>/<connector project> folder.
After I published a connector, what must I do if I made changes only to the connection attributes, record extensions, field extensions, read capability, or write capability extensions?
If you added attributes, use the
Upgrade
 option in the
Publish Informatica Connector
 wizard to republish the connector. The Informatica Connector Toolkit supports upgrade of a connector only if the changes are additive. If you renamed or deleted any of the existing attributes, uninstall Informatica services, re-create the domain, and then install the connector.
How to enable a Cloud Data Integration connector developed using Informatica Connector Toolkit to use the proxy server?
