I am writing this Scenario as I found it difficult to get the information for the Sender & Receiver Module configuration for the EAR deployed. Then by Trial & Hit process, I was able to get the solution :-). Audit Log is really helpful to trace the data flow along with the output result. This Scenario would give the overall information about the J2EE Adapter Module Development & Sender/Receiver Module Configuration. 

To give details on Adapter Development, I have taken a Sample Scenario which explains about the data flow between a Legacy System to a Third Party System via SAP XI. Legacy System would put data in MQ System. This data is in Text format which would be converted to XML format as XI understands it. In SAP XI, relevant mapping is executed and the target XML message has to be sent to Third party System in Text format via MQ System. So Receiver & Sender Adapters would be JMS Adapter. As the data is dynamic, we had to develop a JAVA module which converts the data format from Text to XML & vice-versa to meet the requirement.

 Prerequisites: 

1)      SLD should be configured.

 

Topics covered in this Scenario are:

  1)      Adapter Module Development (Referred from How to..Create modules for the J2EE Adapter engine).

2)      Module configuration of Sender & Receiver Adapters in ID for the EAR deployed.

  Following are steps of the Scenario.

   We’ll focus on J2EE Adapter Module Development & Module Configuration.

  1) Download the libraries for XI from SAP Service Marketplace.

 

2) Open the downloaded file using WinZip and extract

0.1.

aii_af_lib.sda0.1.

*aii_af_svc.sda </li><li>aii_af_cpa_svc.sda*.

 A) Open the above file *aii_af_lib.sda using WinZip and extract the following library    </p><p>   files:</p><ul><li>aii_af_cci.jar</li><li>aii_af_mp.jar</li><li>aii_af_ms_api.jar</li><li>aii_af_ms_spi.jar</li><li>aii_af_trace.jar*

B) Extract the following library file from aii_af_svc.sda:  

0.1.

aii_af_svc.jar* *

C) Extract the following library file from aii_af_cpa_svc.sda:  

0.1.

aii_af_cpa.jar  1)      Steps to be followed in SAP Net Weaver Developer Studio

0.1. Open SAP Net Weaver Developer Studio.

0.2.

Create a new Project as J2EE -> EJB Module.0.1. Choose Project -> Properties -> Java Build Path -> Libraries to assign the libraries to your project.

0.2. Create a package for your Java classes.

Module configuration of Sender & Receiver Adapters in ID. 

I.Integration Repository: 

IR is configured as per the requirement. Data type should be created as per the Data Structure received in SAP XI.

  Following is the Sample Mapping structure that is configured in XI where the Data structure has three fields.

    

 

 

Going ahead with ID Configuration with the assumption that all the objects in IR are created and activated.

 

II. ID: Configuration  

1)      Create a Configuration Scenario CS_MT_PAYMENT

2)      Add Business System i.e., Sys_DWebSphere to the Configuration Scenario.

 

 *A)    *SENDER COMMUNICATION CHANNEL: 

  • Communication Channel: CC_MT_PAYMENT_Server.

Following fields have to filled in Parameters tab:        mentioned while creating an .ear file) value in the second line after 

      SAP XI JMS Adapter/ConvertJMSMessageToBinary.

    8. * Module Type *is Remote Enterprise Bean.

*     *9. *Module Key *can be any value.

  !https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/weblogs/images/251827888/A8.JPG|height=384|alt=image|width=578|src=https...

  We are done with Sender Adapter Module Configuration. This configuration would process the Java code embedded in the above created *.ear *file. As per our Scenario, it would convert data format from Text to XML.

 

  *B)    *RECEIVER COMMUNICATION CHANNEL:  

1)   Assign the Receiver Business System configured in SLD to the corresponding

     Configuration Scenario.

2)  Receiver Communication Channel has to be created which will transfer the 

     data from SAP XI to MQ System.

3)  Communication Channel: CC_MT_POST_Client

4)  Select Receiver option.

5)  Fill all the field parameters which are necessary to configure JMS receiver adapter 

     under Parameters tab as we are not focusing on those details.    mentioned while creating an .ear file) value in the first line before

SAP XI JMS Adapter/ConvertJMSMessageToBinary.

9)*   Module Type *is Remote Enterprise Bean.

10) *Module Key *can be any value.
