line sequence in File Adapter

[former_member440449]

Hi all,

I need to define how does the line sequence of a file has to be created.

For example, I have 3 structures in target mapping side:

struct1 (1..unbounded)

struct2 (1..unbounded)

struct3 (1..1)

Actually, the file is created in this way:

struct1

struct1

.

.

struct1

struct2

struct2

.

.

struct2

struct3

And in the file that must be created, I need to have this info inside it as this:

struct1

struct2

struct1

struct2

.

.

.

struct1

struct2

struct3

Does anybody know how can I do this with a file receiver adapter?

Hi,

You can get the required sequence in the target file by changing the target Datatype structure as follows.

Node (1..unbounded)

-> struct1 ( 0 ..unbounded)

-> struct2 ( 0 ..unbounded)

-> struct3 ( 0 ..1)

Where the Node is the parent node of struct1, struct2 and struct3

And make the required changes in the Message Mapping for the occurance of the Node.

Thanks Aravind for the reply.

I'm going to try it in that way, but is there a simple way to do this so I don't have to create again all the mapping after changing the DT? I mean if there is a chance to manipulate this in the file receiver adapter with content conversion.

Edit: in the way you told me to do this, I am not able to have the struct3 at the end of the target mapping. I can have it once but in the first one. It is like this:

struct1

struct2

struct3

struct1

struct2

struct1

struct2

.

.

struct1

struct2

And I need the struct3 to be at the end of the map.

any idea?

Issue was solved by creating structure as this:

Node (1..unbounded)

-> struct1 ( 0 ..1)

-> struct2 ( 0 ..1)

struct3 ( 1 ..1)

struct3 same level as Node

Thanks for your help!!!
