We are working on a project that requires message broker to construct and send files to, and also receive files from, an FTP server. For this we were naturally intending to use FileOutput and FileInput nodes.
However the site has now purchased MQ/FTE and the message broker will now communicate with MQ/FTE for file dispatch and receipt.
My question relates to the construction of the files. The File nodes would have automatically processed the files at a record level. Now that the files will be sent/received as MQ messages we will need to construct/deconstruct the files within our message flow. I would be interested to know if anyone has used MQ/FTE with WMB and has developed techniques for doing this sort of thing.
A pair of MQFTEInput and MQFTEOutput built-in nodes would be nice!

Your MQFTE agent would spit out the file onto the filesystem where your Broker runs, and then a FileInput Node would pick it up to get it into a flow.

I don't think you have the oppourtunity to use an MQInput Node to grab the propriety MQFTE message off the MQFTE queue.

I did hear of a tool in FTE (not out of the box) that enables File to Queue and vice versa. Speak to your IBM Account Rep about it.

There was also some talk about having those nodes you mention(FTE Nodes). But, I wouldn't expect them any time soon (if it comes, my guess is that it will be in v7 GA2).

! Goodness, I have clearly not done enough reading about MQ/FTE. I was naively assuming that we would build an MQ message with record delimiters etc. and put that on a queue for MQ/FTE to collect!
Anyway that answers my question ... thanks Peter.
