Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-930:
-----------------------------------

Daria a good idea. 

bullet #1 is doable, and then the simple language in general will be improved with this feature
+1

bullet #2 java.io.File is required for FileExchange so I doubt its easy to abstract a remote FTP file
-1

bullet #3 as bullet #2 the file language needs access to java.io.File so you can use all the file methods such as: getName, getCanoicalName, getPath etc.

> the file expression language , file-producer: date and bean expressions are very usefull, but works only with a FileExchange.
> example:
>    from("sftp://user@host//path?password=password&consumer.setNames=true").
>   .setHeader(FileComponent.HEADER_FILE_NAME, file("${date:now:yyyyMMMdd}.out"))
>    to("file://output_dir");
> The above code will result in a ClassCastException, because the file expresssion language relies on having a FileExchange.
> Proposal: 
> - move the date:now and bean: expression from file to simple
> - let sftp send FileExchange, rather than DefaultExchange
> - let the file expression language work with DefaultExchange (use header-entries instead of FileExchange.getFile())
> With best regards, Dario
