File adapter(write files with same extension as we read them)

Hello
I am trying to read file as an attachment using file adapter (it can be of any extension .pdf,.txt,.xml)
I want to write this file using file adapter with the same extension i.e. whatever is read as it is....I am least bothered for reading the content inside the file so am reading it as an attachment..
Please if anyone knows the answer..reply....

I ran into a similar issue. As a workaround we ended up just using java to write the files out. When the File Adapter attempts to write out a file it first writes that file to a temp file and then copies that to the appropriate directory.
I believe that when two or more threads were attempting to write at the same time the write was failing for one (but appearing to work in the console logs). I think a race condition may be created when two threads attempt to write using the File Adapter for access to the temp file. I contacted my oracle rep about it but they are always pretty worthless so I havent ever heard anything back concerning the issue.

Read multiples files with same extension

how to read multiples files with same extension in java.
for ex : i would like to read all .DAT files from C drive using java.
How is it done

- You create the filter
- You get the list of files
- You open and read each file.
For the first two above you look at java.io.File and listFiles(FileFilter filter).
For the third you find whatever input stream is appropriate from java.io.*

File Adapter Write missing files

Hello
I have some trouble with a bpel process containing a file adapter that should write files to disk. Each bpel-process is started when a read file adapter reads a new matching file (*.xml).
I have tested the process with a few files (5-20) and a new process is started for each file, and at the end of the process a new file is written to disk by the file adapter (Write). But when I am testing with a large number of files (40-50 files) something strange happens.
A new process is started for each file, but it looks like the file adapter that should write files to disk is not capable to handle the pressure. 10-20% of the processes doesnt complete as expected. In the BPEL Console everything looks ok, it seems like the File Adaper has written a file to disk, no error is trown. But when I look in the directory the file is not there...
Has this something to do with performance? Is there any parameters or settings I can tune to make the file adapters work better? Sometimes it also looks like the file adapter (read) doesnt manage to start a new process for each incomming file even if they are deleted and archived...

File-Adapter create Files with length 0

Hello Guys,
the XI get messages from the Backend via RFC and when the File-Adapter writes the Message sometimes with length 0
Can you help me

Hi Anton,
As Sudhir mentioned, there could be a problem of correct data. The best solution is :
Inside your RFC code just validate the code for empty values. e.g
IF NOT ITAB_RFC[] IS INITIAL.
**ITAB_RFC internal table data.
ENDIF.
and after validating this, if still you are getting some file with "0" length, then check File Content Conv in your CC.

Please let me know where i am going wrong.
Thanks,

Hi Aparna,
I feel the problem in your content conversion parameters is with
statement.fieldNames and ignoreRecordsetName
When you are confirguring receiver file adapter for file content conversion the above one is not required. Please refer below link for details on configuring content conversion in file adapter

XI File Adapter Custom File Encoding for issues between SJIS and CP932

Dear SAP Forum,
Has anybody found a solution for the difference between the JVM (IANA) SJIS and MS SJIS implementation ?
When users enter characters in SAPGUI, the MS SJIS implementation is used, but when the XI file adapter writes SJIS, the JVM SJIS implementation is used, which causes issues for 7 characters:
1. FULLWIDTH TILDE/EFBD9E                 8160     ～     〜
2. PARALLEL TO/E288A5                          8161     ∥     ‖
3. FULLWIDTH HYPHEN-MINUS/EFBC8D     817C     －     −
4. FULLWIDTH CENT SIGN/EFBFA0             8191     ￠     \u00A2
5. FULLWIDTH POUND SIGN/EFBFA1           8192     ￡     \u00A3
6. FULLWIDTH NOT SIGN/EFBFA2              81CA     ￢     \u00AC
7. REVERSE SOLIDUS                             815F     ＼     \u005C
The following line of code can solve the problem (either in an individual mapping or in a module)
String sOUT = myString.replace(\u0027～\u0027,\u0027〜\u0027).replace(\u0027∥\u0027,\u0027‖\u0027).replace(\u0027－\u0027,\u0027−\u0027).replace(\u0027￠\u0027,\u0027\u00A2\u0027).replace(\u0027￡\u0027,\u0027\u00A3\u0027).replace(\u0027￢\u0027,\u0027\u00AC\u0027);
But I would prefer to add a custome Character set to the file encoding. Has anybody tried this ?

Read a text file then write it with the same name

Hello
I have to read a file (.cvs file) then change a value of a field in it and save it again. Therefore, the read file and the write file is the same name. I use CVSParse for doing this
Here is my code:
private void updateClassName(String className, String fileName) throws IOException{
          String[][] values=new String[0][0];
          FileReader fileReader = new FileReader(fileName);
     BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(fileReader);
          values = CSVParser.parse(in);
          List lines = new ArrayList();
          for (int i=0; i<values.length; i++){
               values[2]= className;
               lines.add(values[i]);
          try{
               CSVPrinter cp=new CSVPrinter(new FileOutputStream(fileName));
               Iterator i=lines.iterator();
               while (i.hasNext()){
                         String[] line=(String[]) i.next();
     cp.writeln(line);
     cp.close();
     catch (IOException e)
     logger.error(e.getStackTrace());
     logger.info("ERRORS: CANNOT WRITE INTO FILE");
It it OK when the read file and the write name is the same?
It is OK with the code above?
Many thanks
sho

Sorry
I post the code again:
<code>
private void updateClassName(String className, String fileName) throws IOException{
String[][] values=new String[0][0];
FileReader fileReader = new FileReader(fileName);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(fileReader);
values = CSVParser.parse(in);
List lines = new ArrayList();
for (int i=0; i<values.length; i++){
values[2]= className;
lines.add(values);
try{
CSVPrinter cp=new CSVPrinter(new FileOutputStream(fileName));
Iterator i=lines.iterator();
while (i.hasNext()){
String[] line=(String[]) i.next();
cp.writeln(line);
cp.close();
catch (IOException e){
</code>
I have indent but it does not display correctly. I donot know why
Thank you, jverd, for very good strategy. That is what I need

File Adapter write XML file with special characters

Hi,
I have a BPEL processes which use DB adapter to retrieve record and output in a XML document using File Adapter.
In the table, some records contain these special characters - ">" , "<" , "." . I was expecting the file adapter will convert it to escape characters, but it didn't happen. it just put the same value back to the XML file, which cause other system to reject the file. Do anyone know how to resolve this ?
The version of SOA is 10.1.3.4
Thanks for the help.

one option is to specify validateXML on the partnerlink (that describes the file adapter endpoint) such as shown here
<partnerLinkBinding name="StarLoanService">
<property name="wsdlLocation"> http://<hostname>:9700/orabpel/default/StarLoan/StarLoan?wsdl</property>
<property name="validateXML">true</property>
</partnerLinkBinding>

File Adapter Writting and Reading strategy

Hi All,
When i am trying to write data to file, it was opened by another person and it gave error in the receiver communication channel saying like source is using by another application. Which is well and good
But in case of Sender channel while writing the data to file even thought it is opened by another person, Sender file adapter is picked the file.
I didn't get the reason why it is like this. Any one of u had the same issue???
Regards

Hi Neetesh,
>>hmm ... that's weird ... you mean to say that the polling frequency is now (20 + 100) = 120 secs ? Unless and until the file is not being modified or the file is not "open", this parameter shouldn't work ...
Examples
Poll interval is 20 sec and MSecs to wait is 100000( 1 MIN 40 Sec)
1) If file is there and did not opened / modifying
waiting till 1 min 40sec to pick the file
2) If the file is there and Modifying it
Adapter is waiting 1 min 40sec if the files have been changed.
3) If there is a file and just opened, not writing any files
Waiting for 1 min 40 sec to pick the file
>>Can you share the adapter log?

File Adapter Write Compilation problem JDev 11.1.1.6 and BPEL 2.0

Hi,
Im creating a simple BPEL Project with a One-way Process template project.
I have added just one Partnerlink with a File Adapter to do a write operation.

The error seen in your case typically occurs when the schemas of BPEL valriable and the schema of message in file adapter WSDL are different. You may use a transform activity in BPEL to map the fields of the two schemas.
You may also like to have a look at various file adapter examples at
http://java.net/projects/oraclesoasuite11g/pages/FileAdapters
These samples provide working examples of how to handle various kinds of data when using file adapter.

How to read the data file and write into the same file without a temp table

Hi,
I have a requirement as below:
We are running lockbox process for several business, but for a few businesses we have requirement where in we receive a flat file in different format other than how the transmission format is defined.
This is a 10.7 to 11.10 migration. In 10.7 the users are using a custom table into which they are first loading the raw data and writing a pl/sql validation on that and loading it into a new flat file and then running the lockbox process.
But in 11.10 we want to restrict using temp table how can we achieve this.
Can we read the file first and then do validations accordingly and then write to the same file and process the lockbox.
Any inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,

Hello Gurus,
Let me tell you about my requirement clearly with an example.
Problem:
i am receiving a dat file from bank in below format
105A371273020563007 07030415509174REF3178503 001367423860020015E129045
in this detail 1 record starting from 38th character to next 15 characters is merchant reference number
REF3178503 --- REF denotes it as Sales Order
ACC denotes it as Customer No
INV denotes it as Transaction Number
based on this 15 characters......my validation comes.
If i see REF i need to pick that complete record and then fill that record with the SO details as per my system and then submit the file for lockbox processing.
In 10.7 they created a temporary table into which they are loading the data using a control file....once the data is loaded into the temporary table then they are doing a validation and updating the record exactly as required and then creating one another file and then submitting the file for lockbox processing.
Where as in 11.10 they want to bypass these temporary tables and writing it into a different file.
Can this be handled by writing a pl/sql procedure ??
My findings:
May be i am wrong.......but i think .......if we first get the data into ar_payments_interface_all table and then do the validations and then complete the lockbox process may help.
Any suggestions from Oracle GURUS is highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
