Prodigal BizTalk Scheduled Task Adapter returns

  • Artikel

After a lengthy absence from the BizTalk Community, the BizTalk Scheduled Task Adapter is once again available.  Greg Forsythe has kindly made it available at https://www.codeplex.com/BizTalkScheduledTask, together with the source code for this adapter.

For those who are not aware of this adapter: through the use of this adapter on a receive location you are able to schedule the creation of a message into the BizTalk message box, which can then be used to start a BizTalk process.  The scheduling options are flexible, allowing for a daily, weekly or monthly schedule to be created.  Configuration of the adapter provides for a selection of three standard tasks to take place once the scheduled time is reached:

  • XmlString - generates a Biztalk message from a configured Xml string
  • FileReader - generates a Biztalk message from the contents of a file
  • HttpDownload - generates a Biztalk message from data downloaded from a web site

In addition to the standard tasks, custom tasks can also be created by creating any .NET class that implements the appropriate interface.
