WebSphere Adapter for FTP

Parameter passing in the SCA framework

Parameters define the operation to be performed. You can use the service client to pass protocol-specific parameters, such as the directory path and file name.

You can pass protocol-specific parameters in the following ways:
  • Set connection information in the ManagedConnectionFactory while running the enterprise service discovery wizard or set the information in the administrative console of WebSphere® Process Server.
  • Protocol-specific information such as directory name and file name and other properties required by specific outbound operations are set in the wrapper business object. These values are set in the business object in the custom data binding and sent to the adapter. These values are sent to the adapter for further processing.
  • The file content is part of the input business object.

The adapter first searches for the UserName and Password values, if set, in the Authentication Alias. If not set there, it checks for the values in the ConnectionSpec. If the values are not set in the ConnectionSpec, it uses the values set in the Managed Connection Factory Properties window.

The mandatory property Ftp Url in the Managed Connection Factory Properties window is used to connect to the FTP server.
