Requirment:
I wanted add an XML file to .BAR file and deploy it , wanted to read that from ESQL. I know in MB V6 we can deploy XML file as separate enitity, but I wanted to know how to access it from ESQL.
I am also searching through information centre, I am not getting a clue where that XML file would be stored after the deployement and how to refer to that XML if wanted to access it from ESQL.
Please help me. Thanks in advance.  |

There is no chance to read file from ESQL.
I don't understand also why you need place XML file into bar.
In my opinion the better way is to place this file somewhere in file system and read it from JAVACompute.

Thanks for your respose,
I know I can keep a .properties file or XML file in file system and read it from Java Compute node.
but in MB V6 there is an option to add XML file, Í am curious about the is use of adding XML file to bar file. if I can access that in ESQL , it will work like a properties file for me. I know there are .BAR file properties.. you can use it for the same purpose.. still wanted to know about this. |

Where have you red about this ?
In my opinion you can add to bar only compiled flows, MRMs and JAVACompute jars.

If you are not sure please do not argue..
don't blindly tell that this is not possible, that is not possible. 
read information centre: To deploy XML, XSL, and JAR files inside a broker archive, the connected Configuration Manager and target broker must be Version 6.0 or later.

| You can manually add XML, XSL, and JAR files by following these steps. However, JAR files that are required by JavaCompute nodes within message flows are added automatically from your Java project when you add the message flow. Similarly, XML and XSL files are automatically added if they are required by the flow. |
Here the most important is

It means they are required by broker nodes (JAVA Compute , Transformation) not by your ESQL code.
You can not read files from ESQL.
Of course I'm not 100% sure

You can not read files from ESQL. There are no language constructs to do it.
You can read files from Java.
Putting the XML Files into the bar file would give you a standard location for them when deployed.

Conceptually, deployed XML files are ownered (and managed) by the broker. It is stored in a location private to the proker. Currently, there is no API call available for reading it from a user plugin node or ESQL.

But it is stored as a flat file , yes ?
If yes I can read it from JAVACompute.

Well, since the files are internal, nothing can be guaranteed.

Hello,
i've tried to deploy a XML file with a little flow.
i see that the xml file gets in a private folder on the filesystem and it's also deployed to the execution group.
But when i try to open the XML file in a JavaComputeNode i get FileNotFound.
anybody any idea?

DocumentBuilderFactory docBuilderFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder docBuilder = docBuilderFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
Document doc = docBuilder.parse (new File("properties.xml"));

You haven't specified the full file path, have you?
Just want to warn you that this is not a supported practice -- use it at your own risk. You may find the file moves its location or you can get corrupted content.

When i specify the full path it works indeed.
Isnt possible to use a relative path?
I've tried with "config/XML/properties.xml" but no success.
I will try some other possibilities, i'll cross my fingers... |
