RFC connection test function but for TYPE G

[Former Member]

I want to test namely ping a rfc destination type G to see whether it is working or not

I found some function but none of them works for type G .

they give the error says that "illegal destination type G" or "Communication Failure" but when I try it from SM59 by testing connection it is ok..

Is there another function apart from following to test RFC destinatinon for type G

Report : RSRFCPIN

FM . RFC_PING

Thanks

HTTP and SAP RFC are different things. What type G is doing in SM59 is anyway one of the wonders of the world...

SM59 is using FM RFC_SYSTEM_INFO, which will "ping" at the network layer, and return anything meaningfull which it is permitted to (including the physical connectivity test).

Cheers,

Hi,

SAP uses program RSHTTPPIN to test connection of RFC destination with type G. Have a look at this program. It creates only HTTP connection using inteface if_http_client.
