Hi,

for BB BEAM is a requirement. An easier way to start would be e.g. via the Visual Studio. The Wizard for Visual Studio is also available at the download section, also a How-To Guide.

Hope this helps,

Hi Martin,

I am using SAP NetWeaver Gateway Demo System to develop sample apps using Visual Studio 2000.

I am getting error 'The remote name could not be resolved : gw.esworkplace.sap.com' , when i configure the netweaver gateway server .

I used below details to connect demo server:

Host: gw.esworkplace.sap.com

Port: 80

Client: 800

User: GW@ESW

Password: "ESW4GW"

what could be the problem?

Regards,

Kanagaraj

Hi Kanagaraj,

As you still have the connectivity issue, another suggestion is to open the following URL: http://gw.esworkplace.sap.com/sap/opu/sdata/iwfnd/CATALOGSERVICE/ServiceCollection?sap-client=800&$f... in the IE browser with the User: GW@ESW and Password: "ESW4GW".

Can you send us what you receive?

Thanks,

Keren

Hi Kanagaraj,

You mean Visual Studio 2010, right?

The connection details are correct. Did you choose SSL?

Below is the URL we construct with the tool, can you try to run it in your browser with the demo system user/password?

[http://gw.esworkplace.sap.com/sap/opu/sdata/iwfnd/CATALOGSERVICE/ServiceCollection?sap-client=800]

Hi Keren,

i am using Visual Studio2010.

I have tried with SSl also, getting same error.

Could you explain the steps needs to be done in VS for sample apps?

How to form the URL in Web.config in VS.

Which url i should use for sap:url when i use offliine data.

Before:

<edmx:Edmx Version="1.0" xmlns:edmx="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/06/edmx">

After:

<edmx:Edmx Version="1.0" xmlns:edmx="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/06/edmx"

xmlns:sap="http://www.sap.com/Protocols/SapData" sap:url="[Your URL]">

Regards,

Kanagaraj.

Hi,

here you can find a link that should help with using OData and Visual Studio.In general there should not be a need to code something manually in Visual Studio at all for the first working version. After the initial work of the Visual Studio Add-On of course you are free to work on the generated coding.

Visual Studio Add-On Documentation:

http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/downloads?rid=/library/uuid/30bd4b8d-9f7a-2e10-7bba-e407b21a21e4

Hope this helps,

Hi,

I am really sorry to hear that there is still the connectivity issue!

One good source to get more detials on the connectivity issues from the VS Plug-In is here:

Windows Start -> Right Mouse-Click on Computername -> Manage -> Events -> Windows Logs -> Applications.

The Visual Studio Plug-In is using the following name in 'Source': 'SAP NetWeaver Gateway developer tool'.

Are there any errors, warnings?

Best regards,

Martin
