Ok so first question is : If I monitor ftp, the file catch will be localize but where on drive? On FFAStrans work folder? (by default C:\.ffastrans_work_root))
I ask cause if I download big files I need enough storage even the file will be erase after process.
Second, not easy to explain but I will try. I created a workflow with a read function variable for open a text file. There is several processes behind. If another text file comes before the end of first text file's processes, what happens? And how stop the second text file until all processes of first are done?
Yes, all FTP file are localized to the default work folder or the one specified in the workflow properties. These can be changed to the destination of your preference.
And you're right, it probably was not easy to explain you second question. I'm not sure I really understood. Do you mean; what happens if the text file is changed during the workflow?
Thanks for the answer to my first question, you confirm what I thought.
For the second, maybe it's easier to ask : Can a folder monitor node process multiple file in same time or one (until the end of workflow) and an other (until the end) and an other etc? And if ffastrans process 2 files in same time, the %s_original_name% variable (for example) only refers to the first file?
It's to understand how FFAStrans works when several files must be processed.
Hope you understand what I ask (difficult to explain and more because English isn't my mother tong)
Thanks a lot
Ok, so the "FTP" and "Folder" monitors picks up one file per job. But FFAStrans can handle several jobs at the same time but they will be independent jobs that is not related in any way. So the %s_original_name% variable will never change within the same job but it will change for every new job.
It helps me to understand how FFAStrans works, very useful.
