As Michael Gerzabek and I are the committers of this patch some words: Yes, we are already using it successfully at some of our customers :-) - the example comes with it's own sub-sitemap - we will add a 'welcome'-page with some instructions how you can set up a connection to an SAP-R/3-system - add JCo.jar (available at http://service.sap.com/connectors --> if you have a SAP-system you have access to this site) - enter the correct logon-parameters in the configuration file --> that's it There was a question: "What happens if there is any SAP-system available?" --> As long as you only watch the welcome-page and don't click on the example - nothing --> The connection to SAP-R/3 is established at the first time you call a pipeline using our RFC-transformer There remains only one problem: ------------------------------- In order to build our sources, JCo.jar (SAP Java Connector) is absolutly necessary. As JCo.jar is copyright-protected by SAP I can only offer following 'workaround': - case1: JCo.jar is not available --> during the build of Cocoon our prebuild web3-core.jar is taken and the source files are ignored - case2: JCo.jar is available --> during the build of Cocoon our prebuild web3-core.jar is ignored and the source files are compiled What do you think? Is it an acceptable solution? Regards, Reinhard PS: We improved some of the classes. If you like to include the connectivity-tool (web3-core) we will provide the new patch. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
