File Stream Filters

You may want to configure a Java class in a FCS Store/Location to perform processing on the file stream that is being written to the location (for checkin) or read from the location (checkout). This section explains how. You will need to write a Java class that is the filter, a params file, and name the location. Filters you implement must operate on the streams in an efficient manner. For example, the filter should operate on the stream whenever possible, and not write the files to disk as an intermediate step. Overall FCS performance will suffer, taking away from the FCS's value proposition, if not implemented correctly.
