You've answered your own question.

You need an adapter.

You can write one or buy one.

The WMQI broker can have custom input nodes - there is a sample Java file input node in one of the Redbooks.

Primeur have a file/FTP extension to WMQI as a product.

Look around for samples or support pacs - most sites will have developed a file to message (and vice-versa) capability of some sort.

It's not hard to code something that reads a file and generates messages - the harder part is interfacing to a FTP server.

Take a look at refrence messages........... Might be an option.



The Reference Message samples allow a large object to be transferred from one
node to another (usually on different systems) without the need for the object to be
stored on WebSphere MQ queues at either the source or the destination nodes.
A set of sample programs is provided to demonstrate how Reference Messages can
be 1) put to a queue, 2) received by message exits, and 3) taken from a queue. The
sample programs use Reference Messages to move files. If you want to move other
objects such as databases, or if you want to perform security checks, you must
define your own exit, based on our sample, amqsxrm. The following sections
describe the Reference Message sample programs.
There are four versions of the Reference Message exit sample program. The one to
use depends on the platform on which the channel is running. If the sender
channel is running on:
MQSeries or WebSphere MQ Version 5 products (excluding WebSphere MQ for
iSeries and WebSphere MQ for z/OS)
Use amqsxrma at the sending end. Use amqsxrma at the receiving end if
the receiver is running under MQSeries or WebSphere MQ Version 5
products (excluding WebSphere MQ for iSeries and WebSphere MQ for
z/OS) or amqsxrm4 if the receiver is running under WebSphere MQ for
iSeries.

Hello I suggest investigating the CommerceQuest PM4Data product which sits on the file server and will then break down that file into multiple MQ messages. Makes it alot easier to handle within a flow as you don't need to write the logic around managing the whole file.

Feel free to message me if you have further questions about the PM4Data product.

Hi,

if all you want to do is ftp some files to a queue (eg for testing purposes), check out Support pack MA0P

http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg24000827&loc=en_US&cs=utf-8&lang=en

it is a simple ftp client, that enables you to put and get files from/to queues.

Hope this helps

cheers

Sebastian
