Which NetWeaver supports JDK1.5

[Former Member]

Hi,

Is there any NetWeaver system, or Enterprise Portal, supports JDK1.5? I've built a repository manager using jdk1.5 and tried to upload it into my EP, which is SAP NetWeaver 2004s SR2 (SP9) downloaded from https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/downloaditem?rid=/library/uuid/cfc19866-0401-0010-35b2-dc8158247fb6, but it fails to start. In http://localhost:50100/ - System Information, it shows that jdk1.4.2_09 is supported.

So which EP supports jdk1.5?

Thanks,

Ray

Hi Ray,

Pl. check OSS Note 716604.

Use Sun J2SE 1.4.2_09 SDK (or higher 1.4.2 versions after they will become available). Please also do not use J2SE 5.0(Sun JDK 1.5 not tested yet).

In NWDS Go to window->preferences->java->compiler and try to choose compiler version..there will not be 1.5.

Thanks for reply, but what if I want to deploy a repository manager that is compiled using jdk1.5? Is it possible?

Thanks

Hi Ray,

It's true that NW releases currently in GA on the market support JDK1.4.x only.

However, there's a preview server, which supports JDK1.5, as well as is Java EE 5 certified. However, this can be only used currently for test/evaluation purposes only.

If you're interested, you can get it from <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/da699d27-0b01-0010-99b0-f11458f31ef2">here</a>.

Hope that helps!

Hi Ivaylo,

Thanks for help. I've downloaded and installed jdk1.5-supported AS. It runs well.

But I want to deploy a par file into KMC of EP. I can access http://localhost:50100, but cannot access http://localhost:50100/irj/portal. Does this mean, that JDK1.5-supported AS doesn't has EP in it? Then, without EP, I cannot test my repository manager, which is built using JDK1.5 and should be deployed into KMC of EP.

So, where is JDK1.5-supported EP?:)

Thanks,

Ray

Hi Ray,

unfortunately, this download was just a preview of the Java EE 5 standards support in the server, no EP or other NW components on top.

What I know is that this year SAP will launch a new product called SAP NetWeaver Composition Environment, which on top of the jdk1.5-supported AS will also provide EP functionality. Perhaps this could be then what you need to deploy your repository manager.
