RFCSDK, RFCEXEC

[Former Member]

Hello All,

According to the following document I am trying to set my workstation settings in order to achieve background communication to my PC:

http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/9831750a-0801-0010-1d9e-f8c64efb2...

Unfortunately the mentioned directory RFCSDK is missing. How can I install the related directories and programs (eg saprfc.exe, rfcexec.exe)?

Thanks in advance,

Ali

Please check this note

The RFC SDK is available on the SAP Software Distribution Center:

http://service.sap.com/swdc

-> Download

-> Support Packages and Patches

-> Entry by Application Group

-> Additional Components

For RFC SDK 640, 700 and 710 (classic RFC SDK), choose:

-> SAP RFC SDK

-> SAP RFC SDK 6.40

-> SAP RFC SDK 7.00

-> SAP RFC SDK 7.10

For RFC SDK 640, 700 and 710 (Unicode RFC SDK), choose:

-> SAP RFC SDK UNICODE

-> SAP RFC SDK 6.40 UNICODE

-> SAP RFC SDK 7.00 UNICODE

-> SAP RFC SDK 7.10 UNICODE

For the NetWeaver RFC SDK, choose:

-> SAP NW RFC SDK

-> SAP NW RFC SDK 7.20

The NW RFC SDK has a new modified API (application programming interface) that is incompatible with previous versions.

For new developments, we recommend that you use the NW RFC SDK.

You can unpack the SAR files using the program sapcar. To do this, switch to the directory in which you want to install RFCSDK. The subdirectory "rfcsdk" is created automatically when you unpack the files.

For example: sapcar -xvf RFC.SAR

If you install RFCSDK from the presentation CD, the RFC library may be obsolete. Refer to the following notes:

413708 RFC library that is current at this time

336693 Replacing the librfc32.dll on a Win 32 Platform

The documentation for the RFC library can be downloaded from:
