public class BaseStepMeta
extends Object
implements Cloneable, StepAttributesInterface

This class is responsible for implementing common functionality regarding step meta, such as logging. All Kettle steps have an extension of this where private fields have been added with public accessors.

For example, the "Text File Output" step's TextFileOutputMeta class extends BaseStepMeta by adding fields for the output file name, compression, file format, etc...

getRequiredFields

@Deprecated

Deprecated. use getRequiredFields(VariableSpace)

The natural way of data flow in a transformation is source-to-target. However, this makes mapping to target tables difficult to do. To help out here, we supply information to the transformation meta-data model about which fields are required for a step. This allows us to automate certain tasks like the mapping to pre-defined tables. The Table Output step in this case will output the fields in the target table using this method. This default implementation returns an empty row meaning that no fields are required for this step to operate.

Returns:

the required fields for this steps meta data.

Throws:

org.pentaho.di.core.exception.KettleException - in case the required fields can't be determined
