SLD Application Programming Interface for ABAP-Based Systems

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Could you help me to configure the connection between SLD ABAP API and the SLD manually?

Why we use SLD Application Programming Interface for ABAP-based systems (SLD ABAP API)?

please help.

You have to use transaction SLDAPICUST in the business system to define the SLD access data. This data consists of the host and port of the SLD as well as a user and password (PIAPPLUSER, for example). You can use the entries that you maintained on your Integration Server.

The RFC destinations LCRSAPRFC and SAPSLDAPI are used for the SLD connection. They use the SLD access data maintained with transaction SLDAPICUST. The RFC destination LCRSAPRFC is used to read the exchange profile; SAPSLDAPI is used by the ABAP API.

The RFC destinations are also used to retrieve the information about where to retrieve the information about where to find the Integration Builder required for the proxy generation. This information is located in the exchange profile.

You have to create both RFC destinations in your business system. They use the same registered server program, which is defined as part of the RFC engine settings of the J2EE Engine on the Integration Server host. This means that all business systems can use the same server program for their RFC destinations LCRSAPRFC and SAPSLDAPI. This program ID is:

● SAPSLDAPI_UNICODE for Unicode business systems

● SAPSLDAPI_NONUNICODE

This should help

Hi,

For that you need to establish the connection to the System Landscape Directory (SLD) when using the ABAP proxy generation or runtime.Business systems with an Integration Engine require a connection to the SLD server to obtain their name from the SLD which is used in the header of the message sent to the Integration Server. The connection to the SLD is established by creating an RFC destination and calling a registered server program (which is defined on the J2EE RFC engine of the Integration Server). The server program is called with the HTTP address as a parameter that is maintained with transaction SLDAPICUST

the SLD Application Programming Interface for ABAP-based systems (SLD ABAP API) to read data from and write data to the SLD.

The SLD ABAP API is delivered in the SLD_API package of the SAP Web AS ABAP release 6.20 and higher.
