Netweaver 2004s ABAP or JAVA?

[Former Member]

I downloaded the 2004s preview with ABAP app server, but noticed two other distributions. One was full Java and the other express Java.

In the Java distributions, is there still an ABAP development environment? Or are the distributions with J2EE using Java instead of ABAP?

Sorry if this question is too "green".

Thanks,

Hi Smith,

I dont think we have the ABAP development enviornment in the JAVA distributions provided.

The links below will give you fairly a good idea about SAP NetWeaver 2004s:

/people/sap.user72/blog/2006/02/11/sap-netweaver-2004s--where-is-it-really-documented

and as i just saw the previous reply to your post which said that the sneak preview is with both java and abap stack.i have a small info for you regarding the same.

SDN recently released 2 Sneak Preview products:

- SAP NetWeaver 04 SP15 Full Java Edition

- SAP NetWeaver 04s Full ABAP Edition (with Web Dynpro for ABAP)

for XI we need both the Java and the Abap stack and not just having them individually because of which you cannot use it for XI.That is, the Sneak Preview products contain either the JAVA or the ABAP stack but not both together.

The link below i guess will also help you learn more about the Sneak Preview products:

I hope I have answered your query.

Hi there,

Unfortunately, the Netweaver Java distributions don't include the ABAP stack. It has been mentioned in these forums that SAP could come up with a sneakpreview edition that would include both stacks.
