How to use Java to connect to LDAP server

[Former Member]

We have a requirement is to get LDAP service through XI.

Scenario is SAP <-> XI <-> LDAP

It seems there is not a LDAP adapter for XI now, so, is it possible to embed a Java program to access LDAP server? We already have a program like this:

SAP <-> Java (through JCo) <-> LDAP

You use a java proxy for doing it.

Helpful blogs.

Thanks, I checked this document. Does it mean we still need to run a standalone java application?

SAP -> RFC Adapter -> XI -> Java Proxy -> Java Application -> LDAP Server

Is it possible just build the java application to a jar in XI ? The reason is, if we still need to run a Java application, and it can connect to SAP directly (through JCo). I cannot find any benefit to migrate to XI.

Our wish is

SAP -> RFC Adapter -> XI -> Java Proxy -> LDAP Server
