Java Development Environment setup

[Former Member]

I would like to get some guidance on setting up a development environment for ISA.

I've worked in ABAP for the past 8 years so I am familiar with the SAP side but new to the java world.

I seem to be learning the java language fairly quickly but I am totally stumped on how to set up a development environment.

At the moment I am using WAS 6.20 and ISA 4.0. I'm writing code in TextPad and compiling with javac. There has got to be a better way. As a rookie I could sure use some type of environment with a syntax checker.

I would appreciate any advice.

Thanks,

Brent

Thanks for the help. I did try to setup eclipse but kept getting an error message when I start the application.

the message says it can't find the xml parser so I have been unable to start eclipse.

here is the error. Am I missing some Java SDK stuff?

!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi Mar 15, 2005 11:22:40.250 !MESSAGE Error registering XML parser services.

Hi Brent,

Sorry the guide must be "Internet Sales 4.0 Development and Extension Guide ".

Hi Brent,

I guess you're using jdk 1.3, that's why you're missing the JAXP interfaces. You have to start eclipse with jdk 1.4.2.

Please go to http://service.sap.com/instguides and have a look at Installation & Upgrade Guides -> SAP NetWeaver -> Release 04 -> Installation -> Dev Env -> Installation Guide - SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio.

Best regards,

Vladimir

Hi Vladimir,

You were correct about using jdk 1.3, I tried an older version of Eclipse and got around the error.

There was a lot of good information at the link you sent me. After looking at some of the documentation, I think I'm going to use Netweaver.

Thanks again for the help.
