Request/Reply in FTP Adapter

Question

Hi,
I have to implement the Req/Reply paradigm with an FTP Adapter and DB Adapter. A file is created which is read by FTP adapter and a synchronous reply is required in the same file e.g the file will contain XML for customer number; in response in requires Customer Name is the same file.
I am using Procedure in iStudio but how can I direct the reply to the same file with the same name with which it is originally created in the upload directory.
In a nut shell, what is the best way to model req/reply in File and DB Adapter.
Thanks

Hi All
The request-reply pattern is working with queues and topics, but not with topic and queue. The issue is with this:
<adapter-config name="RemoteOSBJMSService" adapter="JMS Adapter"
wsdlLocation="RemoteOSBJMSService.wsdl"
xmlns="http://platform.integration.oracle/blocks/adapter/fw/metadata">
<connection-factory location="eis/JMS/RequestReplyTopic"
UIJmsProvider="WLSJMS" UiOperationMode="Asynchronous"
UIConnectionName="chdsez147855d"/>
<endpoint-activation portType="Reply_ptt" operation="Reply"
UITransmissionPrimitive="Request-response">
<activation-spec className="oracle.tip.adapter.jms.inbound.JmsConsumeActivationSpec">
<property name="PayloadType" value="TextMessage"/>
<property name="UseMessageListener" value="false"/>
<property name="DestinationName" value="jms.soa.local.response.q"/>
</activation-spec>
</endpoint-activation>
<endpoint-interaction portType="Request_ptt" operation="Request"
UITransmissionPrimitive="Request-response">
<interaction-spec className="oracle.tip.adapter.jms.outbound.JmsProduceInteractionSpec">
<property name="TimeToLive" value="0"/>
<property name="PayloadType" value="TextMessage"/>
<property name="DeliveryMode" value="Persistent"/>
<property name="DestinationName" value="jms.soa.local.request.topic"/>
</interaction-spec>
</endpoint-interaction>
</adapter-config>
The connection factory "eis/JMS/RequestReplyTopic" can either hold isTopic as false or true. If i set it to false, it doesnt even let me enqueue and if i set it to true. The reply doesnt arrive.
Please help!
