Filename - sequential file output

[FJaffer]

Hi,

Can anyone help me with the file specifications for output files.  I am using the outbound adapter and need the files to go out sequentially or adding a counter at the end?  For example,

test1

test2

test2

Thanks so much!

Femina,

 

For HL7, before sending the message to the business operation, in the data transformation, you can set the ‘target.Source’ property to a value.

In the business operation file specification, %f uses this value.

 

Here is an example…

Thanks so much!

The problem I was having was not the filename it self, but sequencing each file as it goes out. 

Thanks again,
Femina

You might want to subclass the file adapter and add the ability to append a sequence number.  You can store the number in the LookupTable (or anywere else you like).

The code would just adjust the file open to add a sequence number before the open.

On your File Outbound Operation look into making the File Name test%!#+(a1)

See the method Ens.Util.File.CreateTimestamp() for documentation of timestamping options.

For example, the string %F_%Q_%!#+(.a1) means the input filename is returned with a timestamp appended, and if a file like that already exists then .1 is

further appended, and if that also exists already then .2 is appended, and so on, up to .9, then to .a1, then up to .z9, and beyond that to .az1 and so on.
