If you want to use the source file name itself as the target filename, no need for coding.

In the sender and receiver file adapter --> Select Adapter Specific Attributes --> FileName.

Give some dummy name for the filename in the receiver file adapter and in the runtime the source filename will be used as the target filename.

Hi Pullarao,

I have two questions ...

1. Are u want the static file name in the target file?

if yes...then follow the Bhavesh instruction.

2.If u want a dynamic file name in the target file using UDF....then your UDF should mapped to the <b>root element</b> of target structure.

/**********UDF********/

Imports: com.sap.aii.mapping.api.*;

Parameter: String filename

String filename;

filename = fileName + ".DAT";

DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container

.getTransformationParameters()

.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);

DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");

conf.put(key, filename);

return filename;

/*******END UDF*******/

Chilla,

What is the difference between your reply and Shabrish's reply which was posted more than a hour back?

You dont need UDF for your scenario.

Michal was only showing an example if u wanted to get the filename in a field of target XML.

HI,

Just map the UDF from left side root node to target side root node in message mapping.
