Uploading Framework Files 

Use

This procedure enables you to upload the SAP MI framework files to the SAP MI Web Console. The framework files contain the runtime environment for mobile applications.

Prerequisites

●      You have saved the framework files you want in a folder of your choice.

●      You started the SAP MI Web Console (see Starting the SAP MI Web Console).

Procedure

...

       1.      Choose  for the framework file you want to upload.

Upload the required files:

○       MOBILEENGINE_AWT (only if you are using applications with runtime environment AWT), application type Framework

○       MOBILEENGINE_JSP (only if you are using applications with runtime environment JSP), application type Framework

○       JAVAVM (only if you are using a PDA), application type JVM

The files for the various processors adhere to the following naming convention:

CrEme<Version>_<Processor>_<Version of operating system>_<Name of operating system>_minimal.CAB

■       Version of CrEme: For example, 324 for Version 3.24 or 325b13 for Version 3.25b13

■       Processor: Prior to Version 3.25:  XSC for XScale, PXA and others or ARM for Strong ARM; as of Version 3.25 AX for all processors

■       Version of operating system: CE 30 for and Windows CE 3.x or CE4x for Windows Mobile 2003, CE5.0 for Windows Mobile 2005 or Windows CE.Net 4.x

■       Name of operating system: PPC for Pocket PC or HPC for Windows CE

When using JVM files, note the comments under Prerequisites.

○       SSL (only if you are using the SAP MI security components). Application type SSL

If you upload additional framework files for different platforms and languages, they are also called either MOBILEENGINE_AWT or MOBILEENGINE_JSP.

       2.      Enter the following data only:

Field	Meaning
Version for Role-Based Assignment	If there are different versions of an application, you can select one here. The system then automatically uses this version when processing roles (see Assigning Mobile Components to a Role). There is no input field for the version in the role editor.
Build Number	You can specify the build number of the application to establish at a later date which build of a mobile application you uploaded.
Use IP Instead of Host Name	Access to the host using the IP address. If the mobile devices cannot access the host on which the installation files are stored using the host name, set this indicator. In this case, the IP address is used for the download link instead of the host name.
Domain in URL	If the mobile devices can only reach the host on which the installation files are stored using their fully qualified name in the network, enter the network domain in this field.
Protocol	Enter the protocol to be used when the files are downloaded to the mobile device, for example, http or https.
Addon File	Choose the framework file in accordance with the language required, your operating system, and the selected runtime environment. If the SAP MI Web Console is run in a J2EE cluster, the mobile components are stored on only a single node of the cluster. In this case you must manually copy the mobile components to all the other nodes of the cluster (see Copying Mobile Components to All Nodes of the J2EE Cluster).

For more information about the other fields, see Mobile Component Descriptor. You should only change these fields using the procedure described.

You can add multiple installation files (such as Setup.exe for Win32, CAB files for WinCE) to the entry created here. The installation routine for the client installation selects the appropriate installation file for the operating system.

Choose  in the line with the created entry. Specify the corresponding runtime environment, operating system and language again and select the file. Choose Change.

       3.      Choose Change.

Result

The framework files have been uploaded. Once the client has been installed on the mobile device, the framework files are visible in the SAP MI Web Console under Administration ® Administer Mobile Devices.
