Why we don't requeired Sender for IDOC adapter?

Hi Satya...

from the version 6.2 and above...SAP has got WAS(Web Application Server ) as the runtime......before it was BASIS as the runtime..

WAS has got two engines,

1. ABAP ENGINE(ABAP STACK)

2. J2EE engine.(JAVA STACK)

As IDOC and HTTP or present on the ABAP engine...we dont require SENDER adapters,sender aggrements as well...

and the rest are present on the JAVA engine(java stack)...

Hi ,

IDOC and HTTP adapter are located on the ABAP Stack which is also the location for the Integration Server.

Once you execute your scenario, normally the IE has to go pick up the adapter specific information from the AE (for other adapters). But since these two adapter are located directly on the ABAP stack - they can talk directly with the IE.

HI,

The IDoc adapter is part of the Integration Server. Essentially, the IDoc adapter comprises two parts, namely an adapter at the Integration Server inbound channel, and an adapter at the Integration Server outbound channel. The metadata for the IDoc types involved is shared.

The adapter at the inbound channel is located before the Integration Server pipeline and calls this pipeline. The adapter at the outbound channel, however, is called by the pipeline, and can therefore be regarded as part of the pipeline.

The connected systems transfer or receive IDocs through their IDoc RFC interface.
