Upgrading to the Java-based connector

The IBM WebSphere Business Integration Adapter for mySAP.com is delivered as a Java-based connector (connector version 4.0.0 and later). In previous releases, the connector was written in C++. The directory structure is \connectors\SAP.

The following procedure is for upgrading a C++ version of the connector to the Java version of the connector.

  1. Rename the current connector directory.

    For example, \connectors\SAP becomes connectors\SAP.old.

  2. Rename the connector message file.

    For example, \connectors\messages\SAPconnector.txt becomes \connectors\messages\SAPconnector.txt.old.

  3. Copy the new connector directory and files to the \connectors directory.
  4. Copy the new connector message file to the \connectors\messages directory.

Modify the connector shortcut to point to the start_SAP.bat file in the connector directory. For example, if you are using the connector that supports SAP R/3 version 3.x, modify the shortcut to point to the connector startup file \connectors\SAP\start_SAP.bat.
