Spring Integration - Inbound vs Outbound Channel Adapters
问题 What is the fundamental difference between inbound and outbound channel adapters? Any examples would be very helpful. I have reviewed the Spring docs and this "directional" distinction is not clear to me. I support an application that has an outbound-channel-adapter configured, but I find the behavior counter intuitive with the outbound label. This adapter gets an external file, then brings it in to the application where we parse the file and persist the data. This is similar to this question
