How to deploy a stand alone jar file in CE server

[Former Member]

Requirement:

# Use external scheduler to run a jar file of a j2se program

# Jar file need to run on CE server, logs should be visible in NW logviewer

Query:

# if i directly place this jar in CE server, will NW logviewer capture run time exceptions of this jar?

or

# Is it necessary for me create a webdynpro or ejb DC and wrap this jar? In this case is the .jar visible to external scheduler?

Hi,

You've to create an External Library DC and deploy it onto CE. Then whenever you call it within another application, you can catch the exceptions and print them into Trace which is then visible from LogViewer.

THere are samples like http://scn.sap.com/thread/2155284 which describes te procedure. Also check the NWDI resources for how to create a such DC and deploy it via http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-8227
