SAP GUI for Java 7.40 rev 6 Parameter Pass

Hello All

I just download the SAP GUI for Java 7.40 rev 6.

I used to save the connection with automatic logon for example: with automatic logon (user = guest, password, secret) and a start transaction (BIBS) in the old one SAP GUI for Java 7.30 rev 9.

conn=/H/iwdf8997.wdf.sap-ag.de/S/3200&user=guest&pass=secret&tran=BIBS

In the New version all the connections are missing the string "pass", even though I modify and insert the parameter manually.

I'm using MAC OS  El Capitan 10.11.1

Does anybody know what the problem could be?

Hello,

we are no longer allowed to persist passwords or to use passwords persisted before in the configuration of SAP GUI for Java. This is for security reasons.

Only when launching SAP GUI for Java from command line and providing the pass parameter (then you are typing it, and it does not come from some file) is supported. Latter is the reason, why it is still listed in the documentation of the connection data.

If you do not want to deal with passwords, please use SSO.

Best regards
