file with various field lengths non - fixed cardinalities problem

26 Views

Hallo all,

we have the following problem.

we implemented a scenario as sown in this blog

/people/venkat.donela/blog/2005/06/08/how-to-send-a-flat-file-with-various-field-lengths-and-variable-substructures-to-xi-30

but there is a problem.

If the file structure is declared as :

Header,1,Items,*

then the adapter does not even read the file from the directory (so I assume that for some reason the file structure is not as expected).

If on the other had the structured is declared as :

Header,1,Items,3

everything works.

Obviously though, this is not satisfying since we need variable cardinalities.

Any suggestions and help is appreciated

Thank you .
