Hi,

First of all ur question is not clear to me. java is used when ur requirement is not fulfilled by the sap XI standard function. You can use the java mapping for the same.

As u said that u r working in SAP XI support then u should be having the knowledge of IR,ID,RWB and other component of XI.

For the Starter in XI first go through the below e learning link:

Hi,

Follow these steps to create a Java MApping in XI.

Check if your system contains this jar aii_map_api.jar. This jar file is necessary for Java Mapping.

These are the steps to create a java mapping.

1. Develop your Java code locally e.g. with your IDE

2. Create a .jar or a .zip

2.1 Using the jar command of the jdk

2.2 Using a built-in IDE functionality

3. Create a new Imported Archive and import the .jar to the Integration Repository

I want to add some points which is needed to clarify .

First of all as we know XI is a EAI tool. It has lots of features to connect with other systems or third party system using adapters or proxies. It contains some component like IB, SLD RWB etc.

We use IB to create and configure our scenarios. For this in some point of time you have some requirement, lets say to parse the XML to get data. At this point of time, you will search of the pre defined or created or provided components to complete this work. These functions you use in graphical mapping. If it is not present, then you can create USer Defined Functions (UDF's) using JAva LAnguage. Here you need the knowledge of java to write the customize component.

In this case, you will write your own component to parse XML and then you will include it in you graphical mapping and then use the output of that component for your logic.

Also have a look on these links.

Amit,

What exactly do you want to develop? Interfaces?
