Hi friends,
I got a business requirement where SAP ECC is sending data using outbound ABAP Proxy to PI and PI is receiving the same and creating the file at FTP/SFTP server (Proxy to file scenario). File name is supplied in the payload which is coming from Sender SAP system. To set filename in Dynamic Configuration (ASMA), I used XSLT mapping (and there were few transformations also). Variable Substitution didn’t work for me as the file name was not available until Receiver File/SFTP adapter (during transformation it was ignored, it was our business requirement)
I got to develop many interfaces which using the above mentioned flow, and I was writing the same XSLT code (to set the file name in dynamic configuration) in all the mapping so I decided to write the adapter module which perform the same task that XSLT code was doing. Once Adapter module is deployed, it can be used in any Communication Channel and any team member can reuse it just by supplying necessary configuration parameters.
This adapter module is developed using Enterprise Java Beans (EJB) 3.0. It expects the File Name XPath to be provided in adapter configuration. This XPath is used to get the file using regular expression (regex). The same implementation could be done using DOM parser too but DOM parser was performing slower for large files, so I am using regex which is better option as it is native to java.
This adapter module can be used in Sender or Receiver communication channel before “CallSapAdapter” module. I am using it in SOAP (XI3.0) ABAP Proxy Communication Channel.

Below is the java code for adapter module: As I am using EJB3.0, it is not necessary to implement Session bean. Only Module interface is required to implement.
Method getRegexFromXPath() returns the regular expression which is used in Bean class to match the pattern and find out the file name.
