How to delete multiple files using file adapter

bob

Hi All,

We are using SOA11g, and the requirement is to delete all the files inside a directory, which are of a particular format.

For ex. we need to delete all files ending with .pdf.

I have gone through:

Biradar ShriKant Oracle SOA Blog: File / FTP Adapter SOA - COPY / MOVE / DELETE Operation

https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/integration.1111/e10231/adptr_file.htm#TKADP2109

but these documents talks about deleting single file,

I tried below pattern but no luck

<property name="TargetFileName" value="*.pdf"/>

<property name="TargetFileName" value="*\.pdf"/>

<property name="TargetFileName" value=".*\.pdf"/>

<property name="TargetFileName" value="*"/>

How can I achieve this requirement?, is there any other property available which will look for pattern for target file, like TargetFileNamingConvention or TargetIncludeFiles?

Regards,

Bob

Hi mate,

I'm not aware of any property that will look for wildcard patterns... A possible solution to achieve your requirement is to use a "list" operation and then iterate to delete the files one by one...

Cheers,
