Name	Arguments	Return Value Type	Notes
cleanString	String value	String	Used to escape any input characters that must be escaped in XML documents. Example: <Value>@{util.cleanString(parts[0].xpath(‘/root/row/a_value’))}</Value>
getExtForContentType	String mimetype	String	Enables an integration to obtain a file extension such as .txt or .xml, based on the specified MIME type.
getFilenameFromContentDisposition	String content-disposition	String	Extracts a filename from a content-disposition string. Some assembly components such as the document iterator strategy populate the content-disposition message header with filename information. Example: this code returns the value testfile.pdf : util.getFilenameFromContentDisposition( ‘attachment; filename=testfile.pdf’)
readFileToVar	String var_name, String filename		Enables nontext files to be read into a variable. This is the only delivered means by which nontext documents can be loaded. Note that the write step's static-file attribute can only load text documents into a message or variable. The file is specified relative to the WSAR-INF directory. Example: this code reads the image file icon-32.png from the WSAR-INF directory into the context variable v1: util.readFileToVar(‘v1’, ‘icon-32.png’)
readFileToVar	String var_name, String filename,String mimetype		Enables nontext files to be read into a variable whose MIME type you specify. This is the only delivered means by which nontext documents can be loaded. Note that the write step's static-file attribute can only load text documents into a message or variable. The file is specified relative to the WSAR-INF directory. Example: this code reads the image file icon-32.png from the WSAR-INF directory into the context variable v1 with the MIME type image/png: util.readFileToVar(‘v1’, ‘icon-32.png’, ‘image/png’)

cleanString

String value

String

Used to escape any input characters that must be escaped in XML documents.

Example:

<Value>@{util.cleanString(parts[0].xpath(‘/root/row/a_value’))}</Value>

getExtForContentType

String mimetype

String

Enables an integration to obtain a file extension such as .txt or .xml, based on the specified MIME type.

getFilenameFromContentDisposition

String content-disposition

String

Extracts a filename from a content-disposition string. Some assembly components such as the document iterator strategy populate the content-disposition message header with filename information.

Example: this code returns the value

testfile.pdf

:

util.getFilenameFromContentDisposition( ‘attachment; filename=testfile.pdf’)

readFileToVar

String var_name, String filename

Enables nontext files to be read into a variable. This is the only delivered means by which nontext documents can be loaded. Note that the

write

step's static-file attribute can only load text documents into a message or variable. The file is specified relative to the WSAR-INF directory.

Example: this code reads the image file icon-32.png from the WSAR-INF directory into the context variable v1:

util.readFileToVar(‘v1’, ‘icon-32.png’)

readFileToVar

String var_name, String filename,String mimetype

Enables nontext files to be read into a variable whose MIME type you specify. This is the only delivered means by which nontext documents can be loaded. Note that the

write

step's static-file attribute can only load text documents into a message or variable. The file is specified relative to the WSAR-INF directory.

Example: this code reads the image file icon-32.png from the WSAR-INF directory into the context variable v1 with the MIME type image/png:

util.readFileToVar(‘v1’, ‘icon-32.png’, ‘image/png’)
