IT20829: Listening Producer over FTPS (OR FTP) does not use connection type from its configuration

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When Listening producer over FTP(S) configured for Passive
  connection type, the FTP Client Get Service in
  FileGatewayListeningProducerFTP workflow still uses Active
  mode.
  

Local fix

• Added following assign statement to FTPClentGet service in
  FileGatewayListeningProducerFTP bpml so that service reads
  connection type fro ProcessData. And marked new version of bpml
  as default.
  
  <assign to="ConnectionType" from="ConnectionType/text()" />
  Updated service looks like below.
  
                       <operation name="FTP Get File">
                                   <participant
  name="FTPClientGet" />
                           <output message="GetRequest">
                                       <assign to="."
  from="*"></assign>
                               <assign to="SessionToken"
  from="/ProcessData/FTPSession/SessionToken/text()"></assign>
                               <assign to="RemoteFileName"
  from="FTPListResult/ListNames[1]/Name/text()" />
                               <assign to="ConnectionType"
  from="ConnectionType/text()" />
                               <assign
  to="DelayWaitingOnIO">60</assign>
                           </output>
                                  <input message="inmsg">
                                              <assign to="."
  from="*"></assign>
                           </input>
                               </operation>
