Issue/Introduction

When performing a File Transfer (FT) using Java-based OS Agents (Unix or Windows), the source file attribute reclen (Record Length) is ignored.

  • Observed Behavior: The destination file arrives as one continuous stream of data or a single long line, rather than being broken into records of the specified byte length.

  • Expected Behavior: The Agent should insert a line break/record delimiter after every $N$ bytes (where $N$ is the value defined in reclen), consistent with the behavior of legacy C++ Agents (e.g., v12.3).
