Wildcard usage with the Launcher

The Launcher supports wildcard matching and expansion only with the ">" wildcard character. If a triggering map contains wildcards, within this map, any data source and data target specified with a wildcard is expanded at run time, based upon the command line that the adapter returns to the Launcher at the time of the trigger.

To specify a TIBCO Rendezvous subject name that has a wildcard and to perform expansion when triggering a map in a system, do not use the release character. The expansion of the subject name wildcard is limited to the TIBCO Rendezvous semantics of the ">" wildcard character.

For example, assume that a map specifies the data source as messages from rv1.>. You want to return the message in a file with a name matching the wildcard portion of the subject, appended with .txt. The output file name is specified as *.txt. The command line for the data source is -SBN rv1.*. When messages from the rv1.abc.xyz subject are received, the trigger function expands the subject name and the output map card file name is set to abc.xyz.txt.
