5.Which adpaters run on j2ee engine and which run on ABAP stack.

The adapter framework runs on the J2EE engine. It is used for all standard adapters except the IDoc adapter. I'm not sure what the latter is bsed on, though.

>>1.Why Message Split Comes Before Mapping in Pipeline Steps?

Simple. Imagine you have 2 receivers with different mappings. If this has to work correct, XI needs to copy of the source msg for doing the mapping. rite?

>> 2.What do you mean by Collaborative Profile and Collaborative Agreement?

Collaborative profile -->Serivce with out party and service and all the commn channels you create for it.

Collaborative agreement -->Sender & Receiver agreements, that bind your cc with the interface.

>> 3.What are Context Path, Context Object and Context Handling?

Context path- It is Xpath expressions I guess. It is used for specifying conditions in receiver determination and interface determination.

Context Objects -- Used for the same.It reduces the complex Xpath expressions.

>>4.Which adpaters run on j2ee engine and which run on ABAP stack.

All adapters are part of j2ee frame work except IDOC and HTTP adapters. You dont need sender agreements for the 2.

5.What is the need of datatype when we are creating the message type

To get the valid XML structure.

6. and similarly what is the use of Business system when we are creating the corresponding Technical system

Tech systems -->Physical entiteis

Buss Systems --> Logical entities.
