Hi anurag,

to which type of project you want to create sda ?

for java project

1. Make sure that you are in the J2EE Development Perspective -> J2EE Explorer view.

2. Click on the project name and from the context menu choose Build Library Archive:

You require an SDA file to allow you to transfer the table definitions from the current Dictionary project to a database instance of the SAP DB.

1.If you have not already done so, save the metadata for your project in its current state.

2. Select the project node in the Dictionary Explorer.

3. Open the context menu and choose Create Archive.

What type project you have? IT depends on it because say for an dictionary project you will have a deployable SDA in NDS only.

Hi Anurag,

to create the sda i followed this way:

i've created a java project containing only META-INF folder containing all xml files ecc..., and the rar file.

Export the project into a jar file with file extension .sda.

Hope this help
