Archiving With FTP Receiver

[Former Member]

Hi there

I have to archive some files, I have a file that gets droped of in a folder and then some other files gets created in the same folder. With the FTP the sender file gets deleted and the receiver files gets overwritten. I have to create each set of receiving files in a new folder and the folder name must be the date & time. And for the sending file it should have the same logic.

Is there some way of doing this?

Thanks,

Jan

Hi,

For this I would suggest to use dynamic configuration params to change the target directory name. In this UDF, you can add a timestamp to the target directory name.

gives the code to manipulate filename. Same can be done for diectory

Hi Varun,

I thought he doesn't need any changes on sender side...

Sorry if i'm wrong

Like you said, I just thought of one side

hi,

not in standard - only by an adapter module

but not very difficult to do in this adapter module in java

(simple file handling)
