Comments

  • After looking at the provided project and files we have
    concluded that this is not a defect but is caused by a
    misunderstanding of how the delimted packetiser works.
    
    If a Subscribe action is configured to use a File Transport that
    is using a record layout of Delimited packetiser type then the
    delimiting tokens are deliberately excluded from the data used
    to construct the message.  This means that if there is a token
    at position 0 it will not be returned to the user.
    
    File transports that use record layouts based on the Token
    packetiser type do return the token in the data provided as part
    of the message.
    
    Users should pick the packetiser type carefully.
