Difference b/w Read and SynchRead in FTP Adapter

Hi All,
I wanted to know the difference b/w read and synchread in FTPAdapter.
Thanks.

To be more specific, SyncRead is a sync operation and follows a request-response paradigm. Ideally, the file should be available before the invoke executes. If the file is not found, the call returns immediately with nothing in the response variable.
Ex: To read some configuration file which will be used in the process further.
Whereas Read is a waiting call which polls a directory for files following certain patterns. It is used in conjuction with the recieve activity. It blocks the process (if already in flight) untill the required file arrives in the directory.
Ex: Polling a certain directory for PO*.xml files.
Hope this clarifies.
Thanks-
Ashish.

Difference between timeout(secs) and advanced parameter ftp.timeout

Hi experts,
I have one question:
in sender communication channel, is the same to specify timeout(secs) in FTP connection parameters or to specify ftp.timeout parameter in advanced mode tab?
This is order to solve the problem of "ftp stops polling" solved with below SAP note 1083488.
Thanks
Fabio
Symptom
Sometimes, some of the XI FTP/JDBC sender channels stopped polling
permanently. However this is resolved by re-starting these channels.
Other terms
FTP sender channels, JDBC sender channels, polling stopped, stopped
polling, polling adapters.
Reason and Prerequisites
Program Error
Solution
For FTP adapter, please set the appropriate FTP timeout parameter in sender
channel configurations. Existing timeout implementation has a bug while
reading from Input. This patch solves this problem.
Edited by: Fabio Boni on May 18, 2011 5:16 PM

Hello!
If you don't have the patches mentioned on the note, you must use the advanced tab parameter. Otherwise, you can specify it in the FTP Connection parameters tab.

What is the difference of public-read and public-read protected

I have noticed that the access of some variables in API document is public-read protected. I tried the following code. They seem all the same.
class FatherClass{
public-read var a;
public-read protected var b;
init{
    a=1;
    println(a);
    b=1;
    println(b);
class SubClass extends FatherClass{
    init{
        a=4;
        println(a);
        b=4;
        println(b);
var subClass=SubClass{};

As you see in my code, subclass can write the variable with either public-read and public-read protected. What write access do the public-read protected widen? That's because your subclass is in the same script as the variable. Move the subclass to a separate script and it would not be able to write when the access is public-read.
"public-read" = any code can read, code in the same script can write.
"public-read protected" = any code can read, code in the same script, in the same package or in a subclass can write.

Problem while reading multiple files through FTP Adapter

Hi,
We have a requirement to read the excel files placed in an FTP Location and as there is no Adapter to read Excel file
we are using FTP Adapter and reading the Header values of the file(name of the
file) and we are paasing as input to the Java code which will read the data nd insert into the Database.
If we place above 20 files it was reading only some files and some were left and if we delete the files and place the unread files again some files are read and if we do the same procedure then all the files were read.
Any help regaring this appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Nagaraju .D

Are you doing anything complex for your polling, e.g. Files that must be n time old.
Can you post the WSDL so I can see the polling configuration. I only need to see the adapter configuration, not the whole file.
cheers

Difference between Buffered Read and Read Mode on DataSocket Open

What are the behavior differences when opening a DataSocket connection with a Buffered Read verses Read?

Mlenz,
You can learn about buffering data from our website, or in the LabVIEW help. By using the Datasocket Buffered Read, you are enabling Client-side Buffering. If you do not use a Buffered Read, then the LabVIEW does not store the values in a buffer, which are written when the value changes.
Hope this helps,

Difference between File adapter and FTP adapter

hi,
I would like to know what is the difference between File adapter and FTP adapter
thanks
Yatan

Both file and ftp adapters are non-concurrent jca adaps, however we go for file adapters mostly when you have files on your local environment and do not need to wait for someone to FTP the files on a timely basis. In case of FTP Adapter, we would need an FTP Server, a remote location with access where in files pitch in for polling.
Also, File adapter is dependent on the local folder and OS, however FTP adapter is dependent on the local as well as the remote file system/OS/folder permissions/user access.

BPEL process with DB adapter and FTP adapter

Hi ,
i need to read a table contents using DB Adpter after recieving the data i need to write a swich condition on column value of each record and dependin og the criteria i need to write the record in an appropriate file
can any one help me out by giving any similar reference BPEL process
regards,
Anasuya Vemuri.

Hi,
Configure the DB Adapter as a service in your composite which does polling the table in the DB, there are many settings in polling, make your selection according to your business needs. Configure the FTP Adapter as a reference in the Composite. And use switch activity inside the BPEl if you want to check something like if else cases. And invoke the FTP Adapter and before that populate the invoke input variable values using assign activity copy operation. Make sure you create connection factories for both adapters and populate the important attributes for them in the SOA Admin Console.

Unable to read PDF files created by FTP Adapter

Hi,
I am unable to read pdf files generated by FTP Adapter with its default settings.
Can anybody guide me how to proceed with it. I guess I need to change something in encoding mechanism in FTP Adapter Outbound Connection Pool, but not sure what has to be.
Thanks,
Richa

Hi all,
I have got its solution. I was unable to read .pdf files because FTP adapter was sending the files just by changing the extension from .txt /.xml to .pdf that is the reason that it was not readable.
We had to write an java code to convert .xml file to .pdf file and then paas it to FTP ADapter.
Thanks

Please suggest in this issue

Welcome to our community, Vinesh
Firstly, I'm thinking you have wandered into the wrong
community. You are asking a question about Acrobat and this
community is focused on Adobe Captivate. If you want to ask further
questions about Acrobat, you should consider asking in the Acrobat
community. You may do so by clicking the link below:
Click
here to visit the Acrobat community
Now for the gist of what you asked. There is a huge
difference between Acrobat Reader and Acrobat. One uses Acrobat as
the application used to create content that is later viewed by
someone with the basic Acrobat reader. The reader is a free
download for all. You have to purchase Acrobat in order to create
content that you produce for the reader to present.
Hopefully that makes a bit of sense. If not, try posting the
same question over in the Acrobat forums and see what someone
replies with.

Passing payload values to FTP adapter properties

Hi
We are on XI 3.0 SP 13 and we have a requirement as follows :
We want to use XI purely as a dynamic ftp service.It has 3-4 static locations from which it picks up files from. The target details onto which it ftps the files are dynamic i.e the hostname, uname,type of transfer etc are to be looked up from a db table - in other words, these ftp destination details are to be looked up during mapping using a mapping lookup API and then the ftp adapter properties are to be set dynamically .
Question is : can we set these ftp adapter properties like hostname, uname etc dynamically from mapping ? If not, what alternatives do we have to achieve this ? Or is this doable in SP14 onwards ?
I have seen a lot of threads on setting this ftp adapter properties dynamically - including suggestions for writing a JAVA module, proxies etc -
WE are on SP13 - what is the package - class and API details that are to be accessed - if we want to achieve this using a JAVA module ? ( if at all we have to go that route )
Any quick suggestions, pointers is appreciated as we are in a time crunch to do a POC. Thank you for your time.

Hi,
I doubt if we could set the file parameters dynamically.
In case the number of target locations are small, say, 4 or 5... we could achieve this through conditional receiver detemination. In order to do this, we would need to know the receivers in advance.

Smitha.

FTP Adapter Error

How to configure FTP Adapter for multiple endpoints?

Scenario: I have multiple ftp endpoints (5-15) and depending on some business logic, I have to send data to the right destination. With default ftp adapter configuration, I have to add a n adapter connection factory reachable via JNDI for each destination. But I want to read the different endpoints dynamically from e.g. a database and configure my ftp adapter at runtime. That's because the endpoints do change quite often.
Interconnect had such a feature: FTP Sender: The FTP adapter supports sending to multiple FTP endpoints. This feature provides flexibility for sending messages to different remote FTP servers.
Any ideas on that for SOA Suite?
Thanks,
Torsten
