SAP Temp directory

[Former Member]

Hi,

Where do I set the following..

1. SAP Temp Directory

2. SAP Gui Directory.

Prashanth.

I believe that these are determined at the time that you install the gui frontend. I don't think that you can change the SAP Temp directory, but you I believe that you can install the gui to a different directory.

Hi Prashanth,

I'm sure I have NOT understood your question. There's an option to specify where the local data should be stored in the Local Data tab for SAP GUI Options.

Could you elaborate on what your requirement is ?

Hi Prashanth,

For the SAP temp directory :

  call 'C_SAPGPARAM' id 'NAME'  field 'DIR_TEMP'
                     id 'VALUE' field wlv_dirname.

and to set this value, must be in the RZ10 (ask your admin sys)

Hi Prashanth.

1)

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>GET_TEMP_DIRECTORY

CHANGING

TEMP_DIR = hstr.

CALL METHOD cl_gui_cfw=>flush.

2)

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>get_sapgui_directory
  CHANGING
    sapgui_directory = hstr.

 CALL METHOD cl_gui_cfw=>flush.

Andreas,

Yes the value returned by the method cl_gui_frontend_services=>GET_TEMP_DIRECTORY is right.

The thing is, I want to let the user change this entry. So if there is a transaction using which this entry can be changed, it will be good.

I think you are talking about the Temporary directory.

Click on Customizing of local layout(ALT+F12)

then click on options-> Local data and below that you can change the local directory. that what you are asking ?

Try Transaction <b>SO21</b>. (This lets you change the Local Directory)
