Preparing to Connect to SAP using Java Connectors

SAP Mobile Server can use Java Connectors (JCo) to connect to the SAP EIS. With the correct security setup, you can also implement single sign-on (SSO) authentication.

Prerequisites

You must have an SAP account to access the SAP Web site and download libraries and utilities.

Task

After installing the required SAP files, see Single Sign-on (SSO) Quick Start in the Security guide.

Installing the SAPCAR Utility
Unzip and install the latest SAPCAR utility on your SAP Mobile Server or SAP Mobile WorkSpace host. You can use SAPCAR to extract the contents of compressed SAP files, for example, RFC and cryptographic library files.
Installing the SAP Cryptographic Libraries
Configure Secure Network Communications (SNC) for SAP Mobile Server SAP JCo connections. SNC may be required by your SAP EIS, if you are using SSO2 tokens or X.509 certificates for connection authentication.
