Changing flat file filename
|
|
| Tanglesoft 2004-04-06, 9:42 am |
| Hi,
In my Biztalk 2004 system I receive XML files and convert
these to flat files using a map. I would like to name
the flat files using an attribute that is contained in
the original XML message.
In the previous version of Biztalk I used a custom AIC
component to change the file name after it had been
through the map. I am a little confused as to where it
is best to do this in BTS2004. If a create an
orchestration I could use the map to convert the document
then use a .NET component to write out the file and not
rely on send port. If I don't want to use an
orchestration I cannot see how I can rename the file
because the map exists on the send port.
Any help appreciated.

| What you can do is to extract the desired filename out of the message data
inside a custom pipeline component. That component may use that value to
set the "ReceivedFileName" context property. If you configure your send
port correctly, it will use that value and take into account your specified
value...
Regards!

I'd like to know more about this. Could you be more specific ?
How can I set the "ReceivedFileName" context property in a custom pipeline ?
Any help appreciated.

| The sample in the SDK may interest you. It shows how BizTalk Server offers
the possibility to work with messages and streaming data inside a pipeline
component. The message object contains a method that allows to get and set
context.
Hope this helps,

| What SDK sample?
I also want to change the flat file filename in my custom pipeline, but I don't understand how to do it 
How do I get/set the ReceivedFileName context property in a custom pipeline?

Cecilie

in the construction add an assignment for your output message and put the new filename into the file properies like this:
Message_Out(FILE.ReceivedFileName) = Variable_Name
(Variable_Name is a variable containg a string with the desired file name - derrive as you need)
then in the file send port refernce it thus:
URI: C:\Output\%SourceFileName%

| That's right. In the case you are using an orchestration this is most easy
thing to do.
Kind regards,
