The File Connector, which was previously known as File
System Connector, is a transport connector that requires a Parser
to operate. You can use the information provided here to know more
about it.
The File Connector reads and writes files available on
the system it runs on. Concurrent usage of a file can be controlled
by means of a locking mechanism.
Note: This Connector can only be
used in Iterator or AddOnly mode, or for equivalent operations in
Passive state.
