Hi

Well, there are many possible cases her:

1. Are you using pass-through on the receive function?

If yes, then let the AIC validate the input against the schema for the
document. If the validation fails then just close the AIC.

If no, then does the channel validate the input?

If yes, then the AIC will always get the correct input, I would
think.

If no, then let the AIC validate the input against the schema for
the document. If the validation fails then just close the AIC.

If my answer doesn't answer your question, then try to explain your
setup a bit in more detail and explain when it fails.

Well, you don't really.  Biztalk is designed to be reliable.  When it picked
up the file, you are supposed to have confidence that it will process 100%
of it.

Which means, if you kill the biztalk services, which you can, your AIC will
stop, but the moment you restart biztalk services, your AIC will pick up
where it left off.

You can cause corruption of the system if you do things like power-off the
server.  It's ineffective anyway because when you turn the server back on,
the BTS transaction picks up where it left off.

Sorry, but that's pretty much the nature of the beast.  I'd recommend that,
for unit testing, you use small data files at first, and work up to larger
ones to test gentle stress conditions, race conditions, and multithreading.

I really don't see the problem.

If you want to stop your AIC from processing, then program it to not
do anything more after it has discovered that the data is correct.
Just let the code run to an end.

The way to stop an AIC from processing is to just return from the AIC
processing method (Execute for Pipeline Components and ProcessMessage for
AppIntegration). The return value (HRESULT) will let BizTalk know whether
the message was properly processed or whether there was an error.

Of course you can always terminate the current AIC thread, but that will be
interpreted by BizTalk as a failed submission, and would actually be a bad
design idea.

HTH,
Cristi
