Hi,

Advantages of File ;->

1) Fast

2) Support Content conversion, we can convert any type of file to XML using FCC.

3) Supports NFS protocol and FTP also

4) Can use EO and EOIO both.

5) Module support.

6) Easy to monitor and Debug.

7) Can access remote and Local servers.

😎 Can produce dynamic file names and folder directory using dynamic variable substitution.

9) Have options like counter, timestamp etc.

10) It can be configured on Decentral adapter engine like J2SE easily.

Disadvantages :

1) Does not produce XML directly like JDBC adapter.

2) Content conversion is difficult and need lot of effort to produce the desired structure.
