project_key: SOA Smooks Documentation for SOA-P 5.1 is talking about a Fixed Length smooks processer: http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/JBoss_Enterprise_SOA_Platform/5/html/Smooks_User_Guide/Smooks_Processing_Non_XML.html#sect-Processing_Fixed_Length However, if you're trying to use it, you'll get an exception on Deployment: org.xml.sax.SAXException: Failed to locate XSD resource '/META-INF/xsd/smooks/fixed-length-1.3.xsd' on classpath. Namespace: 'http://www.milyn.org/xsd/smooks/fixed-length-1.3.xsd' If you're doing a find /path/to/soa-p-5.1.GA/ -iname '*smooks*.jar' You'll find a JAR for every single transformer/processor but fixed length.
Need to confirm that this is in smooks-1.4.
Smooks 1.2.5 went into SOA-P 5.1, the fixed length converter debuted in Smooks 1.3.1.
Smooks 1.4 went into ESB 4.10 and is in the current SOA-P build.
