I'm working on my first ever project in my first job. I'm required to do pre-readings for the preliminary stage of project that consists of a J2EE web component that will be mapped to XI Integration Engine on SAP R/3 ( provided by client) through iDoc, RFC or BAPI adapters. This whole project will test on messaging function in the mean time. The adapter runtime has yet to be determined. I've read thishttp://searchsap.techtarget.com/tip/1,289483,sid21_gci824860,00.html">this>
which gives me a clear idea of their differences.
However, I have no background in SAP. It is quite difficult for me to understand certain articles I've come acrossed in SDN. I wasn't even sure if I was heading the correct direction.
Some of the articles I've come across:
XI Library

And a lot more on forum topics.
Since I'm a Java programmer, I will be in charge of the J2EE part. However, I wish to learn more on the interaction and mappings between adapter engine and XI before meeting SAP consultant. So, I hope you can kindly point me to the correct direction, anything might help. I don't mind reading more. 😊
Please notify me if I'm in the wrong place.
Thank you.
