problem with: file:inbound-channel-adapter + file:file-to-string-transformer

[uzor]

Hi everybody!

I'm using a file:inbound in order to take a txt file which contains a xml in plain text and after I transform it in string. The problem is that the final string has an additional character: '?'

<file:inbound-channel-adapter id="filein" channel="filetoString" directory="${test.path}" filename-regex="FullTest.txt"/>
	
<file:file-to-string-transformer id="transftoString" input-channel="filetoString" output-channel="createMessage" charset="UTF-8"/>

I think that maybe is because of the xml header:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<this:data

Any suggestion? thanks!

Hi,

Your problem may indicate file encoding issues. What is the actual encoding of your input files? (Are they really encoded in UTF?) In order to help you better - is there a way that you could post an example project with sample input files to demonstrate the issue?

Thanks!

Cheers,

Gunnar

I have changed the encode from STS to cp1252 and is working now
