Customization in SAP ME 5.2 without SDK

[Former Member]

Hi All,

How to do customization in SAP ME 5.2 without using SDK?

Is it possible to do customization by exploring the existing SCA file, modify and redeploy it?

Hi Rajiv,

You exactly described the SDK functionality: it explores existing SCA, modifying it and redeploying. In addition it has a lot of validation mechanism to prevent you put invalid stuff into SCA, for example to do things that Tim mentioned.

Of course if you know what you are doing you can modify the content of SCA.

Thanks

The SAP ME implementation jars, which contain the classes that implement our API, are signed. It is not possible to inject your code into our jars and maintain the jar signature. SAP ME may reject jars not signed by a certificate issued by us.

The ME SDK comes with (or has a procedure to acquire) an SSL certificate signed by us. SDK developers use this certificate to sign their customization jars. Unsigned jars are typically not loaded by the application.

Rajiv,

You can try to simply replace customized jar file under the folder of ME deployment in NW.

Sergiy,

Thanks for your response. I have everything in .SCA file format, not in jar files.

So tell me how to do customization in this?
