To connect to an SAP system from Studio, you must install
SAP DLLs and jar files onto your Windows development
machine. You must have an SAP User ID and password to enter the SAP
Support Portal to download the files.
To download and install the SAP Jar Files and DLLs:
- Contact SAP Technical Support to obtain the following zip files
for the following SAP Components:
- SAP JCo Release 2.1.6 - Windows 32 Version
- SAP Java IDoc Class Library 1.0.2
- SAP Java Connector IDoc Class Library 1.0.6
- Unzip the SAP JCo zip file:
- Double-click the sapjco-ntintel-2.1.6.zip file.
- Use Winzip to extract the contents of the zip file into a temporary
directory, for example: C:\temp\sapjco-ntintel-2.1.6.
- Unzip the SAP Java Base IDoc Class Library zip file:
- Double-click the sapidoc-1.0.2.zip file.
- Use Winzip to extract the contents of the zip file into a temporary
directory, for example: C:\temp\sapidoc-1.0.2.
- Unzip the SAP Java Connector IDoc Class Library 1.0.6 zip file:
- Double-click the sapidocjco-1.0.6.zip file.
- Use Winzip to extract the contents of the zip file into a temporary

- With Studio open, choose Tools | Install Module Providers.
- When the Add Provider(s) dialog box displays, click the plus (+)
button under SAP Connector.
A text entry
field and a browse button display to the right.
- Click Browse, and use the browse dialog
box to locate and select one of the three jar files.

box, click OK.
You can now proceed with
the creation of SAP endpoints and orchestrations.
Note: If you have older versions of the librfc32.dll and
sapjcorfc.dll files in any system directories on your Windows machine,
you must remove or rename these files. Studio must use the librfc32.dll
and sapjcorfc.dll libraries provided with
SAP JCo Release
2.1.6 zip file. Attempting to connect to an SAP Endpoint
from Studio when the required DLL files are not found or mis-matched
with the zip file produces the following error:
The SAP DLL Files are not found.
