Downloading and installing the SAP libraries

To connect to an SAP system from studio, you must install SAP DLLs and JAR files onto your Windows development machine. You must have the SAP login credentials to enter the SAP Support Portal and download the files.

About this task

To download and install the SAP JAR files and DLLs:
  1. Contact SAP Technical Support to obtain the compressed files for the following SAP Components:
    • SAP JCo Release 3.0.6 or later version - based on the platform on which studio is running.
  2. Uncompress the SAP JCo compressed file:
    • Double-click the sapjidoc30P_6-1000xxxx.zip file.
    • Use the decompression tool to extract the contents of the compressed file to a temporary directory. This compressed file contains another compressed file sapjco3- NTintel-3.0.6.zip. Extract this compressed file also to a temporary directory, for example: C:\temp\sapjco3-NTintel-3.0.6. This directory contains the required libraries sapjco3.jar and sapjco3.dll.
  3. Unzip the SAP IDoc JCo compressed file:
    • Double-click the sapjidoc30P_6-1000xxxx.zip file.
    • Use the decompression tool to extract the contents of the compressed file to a temporary directory, for example, C:\temp\sapjidoc30P_6-1000xxxx. This directory contains the required library sapidoc3.jar.

Procedure

  1. Open studio, select Tools > Install Module Providers.
  2. When the Add Providers dialog box is displayed, click the plus (+) button present beneath SAP Connector.

    A text field and a Browse button are displayed.

  3. Click Browse, and use the browse dialog box to locate and select the sapjco3.jar file.
  4. Click Open to import the JAR file contents.
  5. Click the next available plus (+) button to add the sapidoc3.jar and sapjco3.dll files.
  6. When the JAR file is listed in the Add Providers dialog box, click OK.

Results

A prompt is displayed to restart studio and activate the changes.
