multiple files, same structure into one message without BPM

[Former Member]

Hi,

Is it possible to read multiple files (each with single row) as one message without BPM by some configuration in channel?

For example:

input files placed simultaneously in input folder:

file1: a,b,c

file2: f,g,h

file3: k,l,m

after adapter picks files, xml message:

<Message_type>

<RecordSet>

<file>

<A>a</A>

<B>b</B>

<C>c</C>

</file>

<file>

<A>f</A>

<B>g</B>

<C>h</C>

</file>

<file>

<A>k</A>

<B>l</B>

<C>m</C>

</file>

</RecordSet>

</Message_type>

?

If you read each file separately, each one becomes a separate message in XI. If you want to merge them in to single file, BPM is the only way.

Each file would be a separate message in XI. But in your scenario, there is no cut off condition up to what time, it has to merge the files..!!

Bond,

Yes Bond. You can read the pattern what you have given.

First Read the whole line in the file as one record. Now take the substring or write udf in mapping. This entirely depends upon your requirement.

If the files has same number of columns or similar structure then try to give in the sender file adapter, the file name as' .' (with out quotes). If they are of same extension use *.xml or *.txt etc... . Can you again the post the target structure you want, the one you posted is little confusing
