I have developed a proxy to file scenario.And am using file content conversion for creating the file. The file is to be a fixed length file.
File Structure
<Header>
<Item>
<Item Trailer>
<File Trailer>
Each tab in the file has the last character mapped to spaces.
Eg: Header00000001 2006011700000000020060<blank space>
Item00000001 2006011700000000020060<blank space>
The problem is that during file content conversion. XI does not preserve trailing spaces at the end of the line i.e.if a particular line in the file ends with space. It terminates the line at the last non-space character (in this case at 060).
However we are required to maintain these trailing spaces at the end of each line.
I have tried preserve white space in data type that does not work.
I know that xslt mapping may solve the problem but I am looking for a workaround with my current graphical mapping.
Looking for suggestions !!
Thanks,
Rashida
