Save metada of Business Objects locally using JCO

[Former Member]

Hi.

After retrieving the metadata of Business Objects, using JCO, (i.e. i have replicated the BAPI Explorer), I would like to save a particular Application Heirarchy Area & all Business Objects under it locally (e.g. Financial Acounting and all business objects under that area). I know there is a Save on the IRepository interface, but this seems to save all cached functions - that is not what i want ! Is there any way to save the metadata of those business objects using JCO ? Or should i just create my own Save which will save the metadata i want (to XML).

thanks

Hello Javed,

to my opinion the best way to save the metadata, is to create your own xml structure. The methods save/load are only for handling the name of the repository and of the names of the functions and structures.
