Questions about 'Tips for Generating ABAP Proxies'

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I was going through SAP Help Portal help.sap.com:

Consuming a Web Service --> ABAP Proxy Generation --> Tips for Generating ABAP Proxies

It's mentioned that "Translation and Package Assignment

When proxy objects are generated, the number of ABAP Dictionary objects, classes, and interfaces created can lead to a considerable volume of translation. This translation is pointless, however, since these proxy objects do not appear in user interfaces. You should therefore ensure that proxy objects are separated at package level. *Create a separate package for the proxy objects and flag it as Not relevant for translation*.

".

I had a few queries:

1). Does this mean we need to create the Proxy classes in a separate Package (Dev. Class); other than the one we use for Creating the Application that uses/consumes the Service ?

2). When I tried creating a Package, I couldn't find any Flag: Not relevant for translation.

3). Is this just as an advice or is it mandatory to improve performance ?

Thanks in advance. Your effort will be appreciated.

I think , its just an advice.

If we want to create translations for all the objects we create, they are advicing us to do it that way.

Otherwise, we never come across this , while creating proxies.

Hi, Santosh K, do you find the option 'Not relevant for translation' on a package?

Thanks.
