Specify a filename inside the Orchestration?!!
|
|
|
| Hi All,
Anyone knows how to assign the output message a filename from the
orchestration.
there is a property inside the message which I would like to extract its
value and include it in the file name like:
the property name is
<BatchNumber>
<Date>
<Time>
I would like the file name to be like :
MyTestFileName_BatchNumber_Date_Time.CSV
Any help or direction would be very much appreciated. it's quite urgent.
Thank you soo much and hope to hear from you VERY SOON.
Kamal

| I've done exactly as it says but everytime I deploy the assembly, start the
orchestration and ports, all I get is the original name of the File.
So if the input file is called Test.xml. the output file would still be
Test.xml. all the format and functions etc are correctly done but the only
problem is with the File name!
In my Orchestration, I have 2 Transform shapes and an Message Assginment
shape, the first apply Map1 and the second apply Map2 and the
MessageAssignment is assigning the file name to the file!!!
Note: The ports are one way static ports!
I'm not quite sure where Im going wrong, please help!!
Is there anything that need to be installed or property to be set before
doing this?
Thank you.
Kamal

| Hello Kamal,
If you are not using Dynamic ports, The values you set in the Orchestraion
will be over written by the Send Port Configuration values.
The only option in Static Send ports configuration is to use the macros
example (%SourceFileName%), but this is not going to solve your problem.

| Im using static port. and using the macro specified (%SourceFileName%)!!
I've created a new project with a single Transform shape and different
schemas and a map and it worked fine with one problem is that it will always
produce 2 files. one with the name specified inside the orchestration and
the other with the original name of the input file!!!!

| Appreciate your help but I'm converting my messages into FLAT FILEs. do you
think that may cause any problem?
I have tried yr project, it works fine but mine are more complicated.
the test project is converting the xml schema into Flat file before
assigning the file name. this produces two files one with the original file
name and the second with the name specified in the orchestration!!!
the second one which is the important one is converting into a csv and then
applying another map to add extra values etc.. this produce a single file
with the name of the original file!!
in its orchestration you will have a receive port, receive shape, a tranform
then another transform then a message assignment and then a send shape and
then a send port!!!!

Very pleased with the result. Thanks everyone! :o)
