Hi,
File Filter property of ListFile does not support expression language so I
am afraid you will not be able to use the now() function there.
As an alternative solution, you can use ListFile without filtering and add
RouteOnAttribute after ListFile with the following match condition against
the filename:
${filename:matches(${now():format("'TRB_[A-Z]{3}_D'yyMMdd'\.TXT'")})}
There might exist a more elegant solution though...
Best,
Peter
