Re: Config file for Biztalk processes - Best practice

Using biztalk's Business Rules is a good way to implement something
like that :

http://www.developer.com/net/article.php/3514166

This article refers to Biztalk 2004, but it should be close enough to
get you started w/ 2006.

If it seems like too much for your needs, the other solution I can
think of is using the Database functoids in a map, and putting those
values into a database.

'Config files' are doable but reading them each time the orch runs
might add considerable overhead.

Hi!

I am kind of new to Biztalk 2006 and trying to develop an application
that reads xml files from a directory. The application then collects
data from the xml file and puts it in a request message to a web
service. I then use a mapping/transformation.

But I want to have some default values that each instance / each
xml-file use, and that could be changed at run time. I was thinking of
using just a simple xml file with my values that are read every time a
new file are read from disk. And if some of them change the user could
only edit the xml file without redeploying och restarting anything.

Is this a good way to solve my problem in Biztalk? Or is there a more
suitable way?

Any suggestion on how to do this? Is there some kind of support for
config files in Biztalk 2006? Should I use a receive port?

Best regards
