Generating Java Object API Code

Generate object API code containing mobile business object (MBO) references, which allows you to use APIs to develop device applications for BlackBerry devices. You can generate code either in SAP Mobile WorkSpace, or by using a command line utility for generating code.

Generated code can be used to leverage SAP Mobile Platform capabilities and services, and access MBO-related data: calling the mobile business object operations, object queries, and so on. This code can then be imported into an integrated development environment (IDE) of your choice to create the device application (define the user interface, application logic, and so on.

• Generating Java Object API Code Using SAP Mobile WorkSpace
  Use SAP Mobile WorkSpace to generate object API code containing mobile business object (MBO) references.
• Generating Object API Code Using the Code Generation Utility
  Use the Code Generation Utility to generate object API code containing mobile business object (MBO) references. This method of generating code allows you to automate the process of code generation, for example through the use of scripts.
• Generated Code Location and Contents
  If you generated code in SAP Mobile WorkSpace, generated object API code is stored by default in the "Destination" location you specified during code generation. If you generated code with the Code Generation Utility, generated object API code is stored in the SMP_HOME\MobileSDK23\ObjectAPI\Utils\genfiles folder after you generate code.
• Validating Generated Code
  Validation rules are enforced when generating client code. Define prefix names in the Mobile Business Object Preferences page of the Code Generation wizard to correct validation errors.
