File scenario avoiding SOAP

Question

Hi,
     I want to configure File to HTTP Scenario. I Want to Read a file and send it over via HTTP. I also wants to avoid SOAP and instead post the file as a simple CGI request. And I should get the same source file name in Target also.
Valuable Inputs would be appreciated.

Hi,
If your scenario is File To HTTP then there is no concept of SOAP.
Only for internal purposes XI integration server uses proprietary XI SOAP format on various stages of message process.
In Mapping use Dynamic configuration to read the file name and set this value to one of the HTTP URL param value.
Check the help documentation for this,
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/0d/5ab43b274a960de10000000a114084/frameset.htm]
Sample Code to use in Message Mapping.
try
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration)container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey KEY_FILENAME = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
DynamicConfigurationKey HTTP_FILENAME = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/HTTP","UrlParamOne");
conf.put(HTTP_FILENAME, conf.get(KEY_FILENAME));
catch (Exception e)
In the Receiver HTTP adapter check the "Use Adapter Specific Messages" check box.
