FTP listener, filename

[phillip.schulte]

Hey,

my jboss-esb.xml looks like this

<service category="de.eskalon.kn.garuda.invoice.HistoricalExchangeRates" name="HistoricalExchangeRateImporter" description="Imports historical exchange rates from ftp directory files" invmScope="GLOBAL">
 <service category="de.eskalon.kn.garuda.invoice.HistoricalExchangeRates" name="HistoricalExchangeRateImporter" description="Imports historical exchange rates from ftp directory files" invmScope="GLOBAL">
            <listeners>
                <ftp-listener busidref="currency-ftp-in" is-gateway="true" maxThreads="2" name="ftp-listener-gateway"  scheduleidref="everyminute" />
            </listeners>
            <actions mep="OneWay">
                 <action name="transform" class="org.jboss.soa.esb.actions.converters.ByteArrayToString">
                    <property name="encoding" value="UTF-8" />
                </action>
                <action class="org.jboss.soa.esb.actions.EJBProcessor" name="callPersist">
                    <property name="ejb3" value="true" />
                    <property name="jndi-name" value="garuda-invoice/HistoricalExchangeRatesManagerBean/remote" />
                    <property name="initial-context-factory" value="org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory" />
                    <property name="provider-url" value="localhost:1099" />
                    <property name="method" value="persistRate" />
                    <property name="ejb-params">
                        <arg0 type="java.lang.String">org.jboss.soa.esb.message.defaultEntry</arg0>
                        <arg1 type="java.lang.String">???? </arg1>
                    </property>
                    <property name="esb-out-var" value="get-order-response" />
                </action>
                

            </actions>
        </service>

            <listeners>
                <ftp-listener busidref="currency-ftp-in" is-gateway="true" maxThreads="2" name="ftp-listener-gateway"  scheduleidref="everyminute" />
            </listeners>
           <actions mep="OneWay">

My question is how can I access the filename from the file that the ftp-listener had read?

Best regards

Phillip

after researching I got this

<arg0 type="java.lang.String">org.jboss.soa.esb.gateway.original.file.name</arg0>

but it always returns null! Any ideas what I am doing wrong? It's kind of frustrating..

Hi Phillip,

The problem is the file name is stored on the message as a property, but the EJBProcessor is searching only the message body. Try adding a custom action before EJBProcessor action that copies the file name into the message body. Something like:

{code}
public class MessagePropertyToBodyAction extends AbstractActionLifecycle implements BeanConfiguredAction {

    public Message process(Message message) {
        Object fileName = message.getProperties().getProperty("org.jboss.soa.esb.gateway.original.file.name");
        message.getBody().add("org.jboss.soa.esb.gateway.original.file.name", fileName);
        return message;
    }
}
{code}
