The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Sounds like a design challenge ahead for you. Details are still cloudy. If
the present design depends on there being only one file in the library (I'm
grasping at straws here), I don't think it can keep on working. If it's
hard-coded for the possible file names, there will be problems. If you have
no control over the process on the remote machines, you need some way to
rename, perhaps, incoming files of the same name. And log the change.
Apparently you have no way to predict or control incoming files, so you
need to defer processing while they still are coming in, and make sure they
can all come in successfully.
Find out what your present process doing, and why. Then figure out what
your requirements are. Then find a way to accomplish what is needed. An
exit program feeding a DTAQ is just one way. There are certainly others
that may even be better.
Basically, the answer to your original question - auto-wait - is no. Not so
long as you do not have control over the remote process, or you do not have
a "contract" with the remote process that you can give it a reply that will
tell it to "wait, I'm not ready". FTP certainly will not do this.
Good luck
Over and out
