Hi,

Actually MDK is the plug-in which is a part of the SAP Net Weaver Developer Studio.

Please go n check in Window>preference to look for any preference or perpesctive specific to Mobile /MI development.

If the plug-in is not added, you need to download the SAP Mobile Development Kit (MDK) which is available in https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn for normal p-users. MDK offers the developer useful documentation and tools for developing mobile applications based on SAP MI.

Steps to include MI plug-in to NWDS:

1. Unzip the MDK folder, go to the download folder.

2. Copy the file called MDKEclipsePlugin.

3. Paste it to eclipseplugins folder of your installed IDE.

Hello,

Go in the window menu and open the perspective selection screen. Look for the Mobile one. Or go in the preferences and look for the mobile preferences. Or go into the last menu and check for the installation manager (i believe it is the name) and check whether or not MDK is installled.

Thanks,

Julien.
