Query related to JAVA Backend Enhancement in Syclo

[neha_mahanty]

Hi All,

I have a query regarding the Java Backend Enhancement in Syclo.

What ever product we use whether Work Manager , Inventory Manager or Service Manager we need to enhance the application and the Java code based on the customer requirement.

When it comes to enhancing the Java Backend code there is no enhancement document available in Syclo forum so as to follow the standard procedure.

For example : Suppose we have to create a new Steplet , Stephandler and Bapi class, we create a custom class and extend the already existing classes .

In case of Server and User class. Should we always create the Server and User class or we can make use of the existing classes.

Please explain what is the better way to enhance the Java backend code.

Thanks and Regards

Hi Neha,

You don't need to change Server and User class, you can use existing Server class by setting value of serverClass in Agentry.ini

But you can also extend the existing Server & User classes, if required. In this case, don't forget to point your new Server class via serverClass in Agentry.ini

Neha,

You should always extend when making modifications so the new code is isolated and doesn't get confused/mixed with the original product code.  Easier to debug things that way and get help from SAP when required.  If you need to make changes to Server or User, you should extend the existing product classes.
