file adapter specific message attributes

[Former Member]

Hi,

If we check ASMA of file adapter ......all the information corresponding to that attributes will be available in the SOAP header. If we check ASMA in the receiver file adapter then receiver file adapter will pick those values from the SOAP header and will assign to the target file.

Even we can directly set the target file name by accessing the system parameters through UDF.

please correct me if my understanding is wrong.

thanks

Absolutely correct.!

Just to add a quick note, in the case of adapter like File Adapter you have the option in the Sender / Receiver File Adapter to select the ASMA and the corresponding Attribute ( eg : FileName, Directory etc ) to be used from the SOAP Header.

In the case of few other adapters like SOAP, you do not have such explicit option. You add the ASMA to the SOAP Header using a UDF and you just select ASMA and Varibale Transport Binding in the Receiver SOAP adapter and all the SOAP Adapter value are replaced with header ASMA.

Each adapter has a few specific ASMA and these can be seen along with the technical names while trying to set some condtion in the Condition Editory under Context Objects.

Hi Bavesh,

Could you please elaborate your statement .....if possibly with example !

Hey

if u go in sender or receiver adapter,u will find a small check box for "Adapter specific message attributes",once u check that,it will display all the other attributes attached with that adapter.

thanx

Try to go to the Condition Editor in any of your receiver determiantions.

Here you will have an option called CONTEXT OBJECTS , click on it and then you will be able to see the various ASMA for each adapter along with their technical names.

Hey Bhavesh

Congrats:)

will Context objects give the same ASMA as the ASMA checkbox in adapter?

thanx

You do not have the option to select the ASMA explicitly in all adapters . ( Eg : SOAP adapter you only have the option , but not the technical names etc to be selected ) , so you can get the technical names and see the entire list in context objects.

If these ASMA are a part of the SOAP header you can also use it in the condition editor,

Kumar,

ASMA we have got in the recent service packs. Before this if we want to get the filename and other properties then we used to define this UDF and get the filename. Now we can directly get from ASMA.

Also sometimes your requirements will be like that even you use ASMA we still use this UDF.

Hi Kumar,

<i>If we check ASMA of file adapter ......all the information corresponding to that attributes will be available in the SOAP header</i>

Every adapter has a defined set of attributes, which are described individually as part of the configuration for each of the adapters. So these attributes would be visible. And better to call it Message Header instead of SOAP header.

<i>If we check ASMA in the receiver file adapter then receiver file adapter will pick those values from the SOAP header and will assign to the target file.</i>

Yes, if mapping of these attributes are done.

<i>Even we can directly set the target file name by accessing the system parameters through UDF.</i>

Yes
