concatnate special character in target structure last field in mapping level .

mappinglogic for last field------>                                                                                
Concat------->lastfield
              constant(specialcharacter)----->

Hi Rajashekar,

Thanks for your response.

In my scenario the receiver structure looks like the below format

Record

Header 1-1

Name

Rank

Marks 0-unbounded

maths

science

I have mentioned the file cc configuration details like below

RecordsetStructure:Header,Marks

Header.fieldSeparator---$

Header.endSeparator----$

Marks.fieldSeparator------,

Marks.endSeparator------%

The output file is coming like this

Swathi$First$90,80%70,78%65,67%

But i want file like this

Swathi$First$90,80%70,78%65,67%&

& is the special character which i need to display at the end of the message in a file.

Swathi,

Define one more segment in your target message type

for example:

<Trailer>

<EndSeparator> -

---

> Map constant "&" this element.

</Trailer>

Record
Header 1-1
Name
Rank
Marks 0-unbounded
maths
science
Trailer 1-1
EndSeparator

And in FCC modify your parameters

RecordsetStructure:Header,Marks,Trailer
Header.fieldSeparator---$
Header.endSeparator----$
Marks.fieldSeparator------,
Marks.endSeparator------%

Hi Ramesh,

Thanks for your response.

My scenario now working fine, but i used TRAILER.fieldFixedLenths.

Swathi,

I personally doubt that it can be achieved without altering the structure.

Also since we are only making minor change in Target Message, it should not affect your requirement.

It's not affecting the target structure. sill i need to achive the requirement with out changing the target structure .

Swathi,

Withoug changing the target structure, if you want to achive probably with module development.

Just for testing (not sure whether it will work!)

If record is itself a one complex-type, can you try record.endSeparator --->&

Hi Ramesh,

I have tried with record its not working.Its not throwing an error but the special character is not displaying at the end of the message in a file. I gave configuration details like below

RecordsetStructure: record,Header,Marks

record.feildSeparator ---

record.endSeparator---&

Header.fieldSeparator--$

Header.endSeparator--$

Marks.fieldSeparator---,

Marks.endSeparator---$

Regards
