How to handle External Jar files in EJB DC

[Former Member]

I have created a EJB DC.

I have added the required MDM Jar files to the class path.

These MDM Jar files are supplied by SAP for integration with Master Data Management.

But the DC build fails.

If I create the same project as a <b>REGULAR</b> EJB (non-dc approach)project, everything works fine.

Qn:

How to bundle the MDM jars (External jars)in a DC?

How to create the Public Parts in the DC for the added MDM External Jars?

How to use the above DC in the EJB DC?

Basically, I am looking for a step by step procedure,

to add external jars in a DC.

And to use the above DC in a EJB DC.

Any assistance in this regard is appreciated.

You should not reference the MDM jar files by setting classpath directly. For setting references to it from your EJB DCs , you will have to create a DC of type "External Library". Deploy this DC also before your EJBs are deployed. You will then have to create a public part for this DC and the reference the public part from the DC metadata of the EJB DC ie set the Used DC list of EJB DC to the public part of the ext lib. You will get info about this in NDS help as well on help.sap.com
