Limitations

Before you begin using the Custom Dataset Builder, please consider the following:

• The Custom Dataset Builder does not support TAB file names that contain special characters, , #, $, or %, for example. If a TAB file you intend to use with the Custom Dataset Builder contains special characters, you need to rename it.
• The Custom Dataset Builder does not support the byte order mark (BOM) Unicode character. Some editors, Notepad, for instance, add a BOM when you save text as UTF-8; therefore, when editing a JSON file, you should use an editor that does not add a BOM, Notepad++ for example.
• Data creation for a country using multiple Tab files is not supported.
• The optional parameter -usePackagedLib will only work with Spectrum version 2019.1 or higher and SPD bundles OCT2019 or higher.
• The optional parameter -engine="Typeahead/Geocoding" will only work with Spectrum version 2020.1 or higher and SPD bundles OCT2020 or higher.
