In AEM, how to read a xml file from file system and store the content as jcr:data into sling:folder node using Java?

Any sample or tutorial available, kindly help.

My AEM Scheduler Service is grabbing the XML file from the Watched Folder every min and putting it into the JCR Repo--

Thanks smacdonald2008 .

Is this based on AEM workbench process?

Also we need to store the xml file in sling:folder (not nt:folder) as jcr:data (binary), as this is the expected format by the prefill osgi service that we have deployed already. This xml will be read in adaptive form through prefill service

Its an AEM OSGi service written in Java.. Then anothet AEM scheduler service invokes the custom service that reads the XML file and places it within the JCR.

We are wrapping up this today - it works very nicely as a custom AEM Service with an AEM Scheduler Service -- all discussed in the new article.
