Hi All,
I have a portal & webdynpro application in the form of a single .sca file.
I unzipped the file using winzip and got two files - .ear and .epa.
I want to import this in NWDS to view the code and make some changes in webdynpro.
Can anybody give me the step by step procedure to do this?
Will surely award points for useful answers.
thanks

Hello Raj,
SCA can be created in the Assemble step of the development cycle.
Please have a look at this guide:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/EN/ab/40833c87ac4d0cb5c4c44da8259386/frameset.htm
Of course there are many things to do before you can assemble a software, since NWDI has also a learning curve, I suggest you to read all the other documents on the above sent guide (check the navigation tree on the left hand side on help.sap.com).
I hope this helps.
Best Regards,
Ervin
thanks
i am going through the link , u have sent to me.
hope it will be helpful for me....
Hi Juhi,
To my understanding, an *.epa file is a portal transport file. A portal app should be export into a PAR file then you can import it into NWDS. Which version of EP, NWDS are you using? Do you have NWDI set up?
If you have NWDI set up, you can try to check in the *.sca file into your track (Transport Studio), then you can check out your app from the DTR and make the modifications, etc.
Hope it helps.

Hi Juhi,
This is in case that you've already had your SC properly defined in the SLD with all the dependencies, your track is properly configured in the NWDI and that you're familiar with java development process using NWDI. Please check out these links for more info about importing SCAs into NWDI:

Nonetheless, if this is something completely new from your system then I'm afraid that you won't be able to get the whole WD code and the project structure from an EAR file, you'd only get some java code from the EAR file, at best. Please check out the following threads (and many more if you search on SDN):

Hi Dao,
The .SCA file that I have was developed at clients side ie its a custom .SCA application.
I have deployed this file at our Web AS using SDM.
Now when i open the SLD and view the contents then the application is visible under "Installed application components"
but not in the "Software Components" catalog. Unless this application is visible under " Software Catalog" I cannot check-in the
same in the DTR. How to bring this in " Software Components" catalog. Also for this software the vendor name is different eg
<company-name>.com .
thanks

Hi Juhi,
As Pascal said, you'll have to create your SC in the SLD. I also mentioned that it'd only work if you've already had everything (SC/DC and track) configured properly.
Wouldn't it be easier for you to ask your client to have the WD project exported to a local file system so you can import it into your NWDS as a local development? Because, as mentioned before, I'm not sure if you can get any WD code (and the project structure) from the EAR file.
Regards,
Dao
