    File and Bean component

    manta7

      Hello guys,

       

      I'm trying to make a simple project where I poll a directory, I modify the new file (with a bean) and I move this file.

      The workflow is:

       

      File Poller -> Bridge -> Bean -> Bridge -> File Sender

       

      So I create 4 projects:

       

      1. A SA project wich contains every SU

       

      2. A File-SU project with this xbean.xml (sorry for the un-indentation):

       

      <file:sender service="msl:file"

                   endpoint="sender"

                   directory="file:///c:/tmp/sender">

        <property name="marshaler">

          <bean class="org.apache.servicemix.components.util.BinaryFileMarshaler" />

        </property>

      </file:sender>

       

      <file:poller service="msl:file"

                   endpoint="poller"

                   file="file:///c:/tmp/poller"

                   targetService="msl:pipeline"

                   targetEndpoint="endpoint">

        <property name="marshaler">

          <bean class="org.apache.servicemix.components.util.BinaryFileMarshaler" />

        </property>

      </file:poller>

       

      3. Then a Bridge-SU which invoke my bean transformation and send the following result to my file sender. The xbean is:

       

      <eip:pipeline service="msl:pipeline" endpoint="endpoint">

      <eip:transformer>

      <eip:exchange-target service="msl:toxml" endpoint="bean"/>

      </eip:transformer>

      <eip:target>

      <eip:exchange-target service="msl:file" endpoint="sender"/>

      </eip:target>

      </eip:pipeline>

       

      4. Next a bean SU which must transform my file content, with this xbean:

       

      <bean:endpoint service="mls:toxml" endpoint="bean" bean="#myBean"/>

      <bean id="myBean" class="X.X.X.X.MyBean"/>

       

      And this MyBean.java:

       

      public void onMessageExchange(MessageExchange exchange) throws MessagingException {

      if (exchange.getStatus() == ExchangeStatus.ACTIVE) {

      NormalizedMessage message = exchange.getMessage("in");

      Source content = message.getContent();

      try {

      String body = (new SourceTransformer()).toString(content);

      System.out.println("body=" + body);

      System.out.println("content=" + content);

      System.out.println("message=" + message);

      } catch(TransformerException e) {

      e.printStackTrace();

      }

      message.setContent(content);

      exchange.setMessage(message, "out");

      channel.send(exchange);

      }

      }

       

       

      So, when I put a file on my directory, the workflow is working cause I see my bean's logs and the file is moved.

       

      But I have a problem with my log:

      System.out.println("message=" + message); => org.apache.servicemix.jbi.runtime.impl.NormalizedMessageImpl@c20590 (OK)

      System.out.println("content=" + content); => null

      System.out.println("body=" + body); => null

       

      Why the content and the body of the message is null ?

      Shouldn't have I to display the content of the file which is polled ?

      This is my main question, how can I, in my bean-SU, receive the content of the newly created file ??

          Hi,

           

          Not answer your question directly, but if you are about to start a new project, I suggest you use camel router but not the servicemix-eip JBI component, as camel is more powerful and flexible.

            Ok! Thanks for the answer but what about my problem ? ^^

             

            I simply try to pass the content of a file to a bean-su
