Developing applications for Managed File Transfer

Specify programs to run with Managed File Transfer, use Apache Ant with Managed File Transfer, customise Managed File Transfer with user exits, and control Managed File Transfer by putting messages on the agent command queue.

• Specify programs to run with MFT
  We can run programs on a system where a Managed File Transfer Agent is running. As part of a file transfer request, we can specify a program to run either before a transfer starts, or after it finishes. Additionally, we can start a program that is not part of a file transfer request by submitting a managed call request.
• Use Apache Ant with MFT
  Managed File Transfer provides tasks used to integrate file transfer function into the Apache Ant tool.
• Customizing MFT with user exits
  We can customize the features of Managed File Transfer by using your own programs known as user exit routines.
• Control MFT by putting messages on the agent command queue
  We can write an application that controls Managed File Transfer by putting messages on agent command queues.
