Deleting or omitting Special characters in PI mapping

Hi Sethu,

here is the java mapping code to meet your requirement. I assumed you are working on PI 7.1 or above versions.

The java mapping code pattern,associated library files and compilation enviornment are different in PI7.0 and lower versions.

import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.util.Map;


import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.AbstractTransformation;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.StreamTransformationException;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.TransformationInput;
import com.sap.aii.mapping.api.TransformationOutput;


public class RemoveSpecialChar extends AbstractTransformation {

	/**
	 * @param args
	 */
	

	public void execute(InputStream in, OutputStream out)
			throws StreamTransformationException {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		try
		{
			byte b[]=new byte[in.available()];
			String encoding="UTF-8";
			in.read(b);
			String inputXML=new String(b);
			inputXML=inputXML.replaceAll("§","");
			out.write(inputXML.getBytes(encoding));
		}	
		catch(Exception e)
		{
			throw new StreamTransformationException(e.getCause().toString());
		}	
		
	}

	public void setParameter(Map arg0) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		
	}
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		try{
			RemoveSpecialChar genFormat=new RemoveSpecialChar();
			FileInputStream in=new FileInputStream("C:\Apps\my folder\sdn\qmark.xml");
			FileOutputStream out=new FileOutputStream("C:\Apps\my folder\sdn\qmark1.xml");
			genFormat.execute(in,out);
			}
			catch(Exception e)
			{
			e.printStackTrace();
			}
	}

	public void transform(TransformationInput arg0, TransformationOutput arg1)
			throws StreamTransformationException {
	 this.execute(arg0.getInputPayload().getInputStream(), arg1.getOutputPayload().getOutputStream());
		
	}
}

you need to use this mapping before message goes out of PI server.
