Client Components and Utilities

There are several components that you can install onto a PC client to support the SAP ASE server, which are downloaded from the SAP Service Marketplace (SMP). The previous PC-Client installer is replaced in ASE 16.0 by separately downloadable installers that provide many of the same components.

SDK for SAP ASE

The SAP Service Marketplace provides both 32-bit and 64-bit SDK for SAP^® ASE images. Download the software development kit (SDK) that matches your version of Windows (32- or 64-bit).

Use either method to obtain the SDK from SAP Service Marketplace > SAP Software Download Center:
