Help Required in Adapter Module Development

[jyothi_anagani]

Hi Experts,

We are doing Adapter Module Development to read the Excel file. We are using additional library jxl.

To create an EAR file We should have Enterprise Aplication Project,There We will select Our EJB Project as reference. In that We need to assign references in application-j2ee-engine.xml. Like

com.sap.aii.af.lib
com.sap.aii.adapter.xi.svc
com.sap.aii.af.svc
com.sap.aii.af.cpa.svc
com.sap.aii.af.cpa.svc

Do We need to add the External library jxl also. If yes HOW?

Then what are the values for this parameters.

Reference Target
Reference type
Reference target type
Provider Name

Thanks.

No need to delete the libraries from EAR file-.

U can deploy the EAR file directly.

When you deploy the library in the same EAR file, you need not add an external reference.

If you create a library project for the jxl, then you deploy that library SDA first and reference this library.

The deployed application need to reference the libraries and services in the deployed J2EE engine.

so we need to add references for PI 7.1 to these and not to jxl library.

engine.security.facade hard service

engine.security.facade hard library

com.sap.aii.af.svc.facade hard service

com.sap.aii.af.ifc.facade hard interface

com.sap.aii.af.lib.facade hard library

com.sap.base.technology.facade hard library

Syed

Yes We have seen that Blog. Our Question is Do we need to add jxl as reference in application-j2ee-engine.xml or Not.

Thanks.

no. the jxl library needs to be added only as external jars to the project

[jyothi_anagani]

Thanks for your Reply. One more doubt. After generation of EAR is it necessary to delete the libraries from EAR. if yes How?

Thanks.

[Shabarish_Nair]

the libraries should be part of the EAR

[jyothi_anagani]

We read in the below pdf and in some blogs that we have to delete the libraries.

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/02706f11-0d01-0010-e5ae-ac25e74c...

Refer pageNo:12.

Sentence was like this

Make sure that the libraries are not inside the generated EAR file, or delete them

using WinZip.

Thanks.

[Shabarish_Nair]

i guess the reference is to the standard SAP libraries and not the external libraries

[jyothi_anagani]

So Do you mean to say that we have to delete the standard libraries and not to delete the jxl.

Thanks.

Yes, that is correct.
