Eclipse ADT SAP system connection source

dschiener — Tue, 21 Mar 2023 14:22:58 GMT

Hi there,

when I create a new ABAP project in Eclipse ADT, Eclipse is showing a popup with all known SAP system connections.

Can anyone tell me from which source Eclipse ADT retrieves these connection information:

BR,

Hi frdric.girod,

yes I know. And on Windows there is also a file called SAPUILandscape.xml in folder %APPDATA%\Roaming\SAP\common that seems to contain system endpoint configurations.

Unfortunately, Eclipse seems to ignore these configurations because when I change something in this file, it will not be displayed in this Eclipse popup...

So am I doing anything wrong or is there another file where these system endpoint configurations are stored?

Hi dschiener,

What Version of SAP GUI do you use? In some older versions the newer configuration file SAPUILandscape.xml is not mandatory. Since 7.60 or 7.70 it is the only option.

If I remember correctly you can see the used Configfiles in the SAP GUI Options.

And yes, the answer from frdric.girod is correct, the SAP GUI System connections are displayed.

Hi michael.biber2,

thank you for your reply. So I use SAP Gui 7.70...

So you mean for this SAP Gui version the SAPUILandscape.xml is the only option to configure these connections?

Hm. If so I am doing something wrong.
If I change anything in this file my Eclipse ADT does not recognize these changes...:(

Ok solved it. I had to adapt the configuration path in SAP Gui Configuration too:

Had forgotten this step...
